Winery Introduction

After more than ten years of hard work, Nabunet Manor has improved the quality of its wine and finally attained the demeanor it deserved. It is located in the district of St.Dust, and the output is not too much. There are only 5,000 boxes of wine a year. Chateau Cos Labory is always considered to be the younger brother of Cos d'Estournel. The similarities between the two manor names simply stem from the fact that COS (from Old Words) CAUSS) refers to a hill or hillock, both of which are located on the top of the same mountain at the end of Santa Fe Thiphinan.

The history of Nabney Manor dates back some 250 years ago to a vineyard named Cos-Gaston. It is located in the small village of Cos. The first half of its name is taken from the Gaston family it belongs to. On the hill, the manor was transferred from the Gaston family to the Nabunetian family during the marriage process. After the death of their mother, the eight children of the Nabnet family fell into the storm of competition. But in the end no one else got it. In 1847, the manor house fell into the hands of Louis–Gaspard d’Estournel, the owner of the Estel Estate. Five years later, the estate was resold and the current owner of the estate was the Francois Audoy family, which was run by several brothers. Bernard was the manager of the estate. He studied wine at the University of Bordeaux in his early years and studied under the tutelage of Emile Peynaud. In 1978, he joined the Nabunet Manor.

 

Region Introduction

St.Estephe is the northernmost of the four major sub-regions of Haut-Medoc. Relatively speaking, its popularity is not as high as that of Mido's other three sub-regions (Puyle, Margaux, and St. Julian). The soil structure of this production area is complex and diverse. Except for the sporadic gravel land, most of it is clay, and some northwestern side is also mixed with some calcareous soil. The poor drainage of the clay, coupled with the location of the production area to the north, the climate is relatively cool, so the grapes here are slow to ripen, the red wine produced has a higher acidity and is the heaviest tannin in the whole Bordeaux region. The most vigorous and powerful wine. Red wines in the producing areas are sour and astringent, with a rough style, strong tannins, and even a clayy taste. After years of aging, the aroma and texture of the red wine will become supple and rich.

With 1200 hectares of vineyards, St.Duster ranks second in the 4 famous sub-regions of Mido, after Margaux, but the development of the wine industry is later than the other three sub-regions. As a result, in the 1855 winery rating, there were only 5 wineries in the area, and it was the lowest in the four sub-regions.
