Ch Maurac

The Haut-Médoc is one of the most prestigious wine regions in the world. This is Bordeaux’s famed “left bank,” home to many of Bordeaux’s finest chateaux. Within the Haut-Médoc are the famous communes of Margaux, St. Julien, Pauillac and St. Estèphe. In addition to the elites, the appellation Haut-Médoc refers to the many fine wines from vineyards bordering or surrounding these renowned villages. They are expressions of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot that have made Bordeaux wine famous for centuries.
Winemaker and vineyard manager Claude Gaudin works with a number of châteaux in the region, and one of the best is Château Maurac. This estate is situated just past the boundary of St. Estèphe, near such well-known neighbors as Château Sociando-Mallet and Château Charmail.
