Château Haut-Goujon offers you a bouquet!
This new creation explores non-traditional combinations, bringing together our five grape varieties, with Petit Verdot (planted in 2013), an unusual grape for our region, and Malbec, which enhance the wine. Every year, the blending and ageing processes are different depending on the nature of the vintage and what approach the winegrower decides to take. This is in line with the development of our creative range.
AVAILABLE AT THE END OF NOVEMBER !!!

Like an arrangement of flowers in a bouquet, this wine is available in sets of six bottles and only sold in cases of six in two outstanding vintages (2019 and 2020). Production is limited (2,000 bottles per year). Each bottle is numbered.
For the label, we collaborated with Élodie and Christophe Brisson at La Bête Noire graphic design studio. We wanted a label that appealed to the senses, with embossed letters and different colours for each bottle, like a bouquet of flowers.
