Château Lacaussade Saint-Martin
Château Lacaussade Saint-Martin in the Bordeaux region has been owned by Jacques Chardat since 1991. The vineyard is located along the Gironde estuary, just opposite the Médoc Grands Crus Classés. The vines of Château Lacaussade Saint Martin arelocated on the first slopes bordering the river, benefiting from both mild temperatures and extraordinary luminosity.

The vineyards of Château Lacaussade Saint-Martin stretch along the famous limestone vein that runs north from Blaye, along the Gironde estuary. With just a few dozen centimetres of grey clay on the surface, mixed with limestone pebbles and superb sea urchin fossils, it is a poor terroir, ideal for Merlot and Cabernet vines.

Determination and the awareness of a prodigious terroir have driven Jacques Chardat to take the Château Lacaussade Saint-Martin vineyard by the horns, to make Premières Côtes de Blaye appellation wines full of seduction and grandeur.

"A safe bet at a low price

" A soft, delicate red with berry scents, light chocolate and earthy aromas and flavors. Medium body. Juicy, savory finish. Drink now." (James Suckling - 2021) This cuvée is a tribute to the generations of winemakers who preceded the Chardat family on these lands. The wine admirably expresses the beautiful terroir of Lacaussade. A little gem!

Notes : Guide Hachette 2**(Outstanding wine)
"This 2010 presents a golden yellow color with green highlights, and delivers charming, subtle aromas of citrus fruit, white flowers, beeswax and vanilla.

Note : Guide Hachette 2*(Remarkable wine)
"Trois Moulins has a deep, brilliant color. Its bouquet is as elegant as it is delicious, combining ripe grapes with the toasty scents of ageing (nine months in barrel). Its ample palate evolves with fine, pleasant tannins and finishes on notes of dark chocolate and sweet spices of rare persistence... " (Guide Hachette des Vins 2012)

Silver medal at Concours de Bordeaux 2009
This Les Trois Moulins white cuvée certainly owes much of its personality, fruitiness and exceptional freshness to the very special moment chosen to harvest the grapes at peak ripeness: in the afternoon, after the morning dews... A wine of great complexity, with melted oak and aromas of exotic fruit and candied fruit. Another great success!

4 Silver Medals (Paris, Bordeaux, Vinalies Internationales, Challenge International du Vin)
Cuvée Les Trois Moulins rouge expresses the singularity of the appellation and the richness of the site: south-facing slopes with excellent drainage. This is a powerful vintage, dominated by small red stone fruits and fine woody notes. Roundness, finesse and suppleness are the hallmarks of this multi-medalist wine, not to be missed!

Château Lacaussade Saint-Martin - Trois Moulins 2006

Following in the footsteps of its predecessor (rated Exceptional by RVF), 2006 certainly owes much of its personality, fruitiness and exceptional freshness to the very special time chosen to harvest the grapes at very high ripeness: in the afternoon, after the morning dews... A wine of great complexity, with mellow oak and aromas of exotic and candied fruit, and good ageing potential thanks to prolonged barrel ageing. Drink it now in its enchanting youth, or in a few years' time, when it will be a great table companion. Another exceptional success!

Round, smooth and supple!

Silver medal Concours Mondial Bruxelles 2007, Selected Guide Hachette 2008
Great determination and the awareness of being in the presence of a prodigious terroir drove Jacques Chardat to take this vineyard by the horns and make wines full of seduction and grandeur. Les old vines that give birth to this Trois Moulins red 2005 express the uniqueness of the appellation and the richness of the site: south-facing hillsides on well-drained slopes. This is a powerful vintage, dominated by small red stone fruits and fine woody notes. A medal-winner not to be missed!
