Château de Caux et Sauzens
Visit Château de Caux et Sauzens is located 5 kilometers west of Carcassonne on the banks of the Canal du Midi, both Unesco World Heritage sites. The history of Château de Caux et Sauzensbuilt at the end of the 12th century, is closely linked to the destiny of a great Languedoc family, the Roger Cahuzac de Caux, owners until the middle of the 19th century. In 1871, the château was acquired by the Guitard family, already established on the Sauzens estate long before the Revolution.

The Château de Caux et Sauzens vineyard covers more than 70 hectares, including 45 hectares of vines at the junction of the Malepère PDO and the Pays de la Cité de Carcassonne PGI geographical areas. These transitional terroirs between oceanic and Mediterranean climates are subject to the combined influence of the Marin, a warm, humid wind from the Mediterranean, and the Cers, a dry, temperate wind from the Atlantic.

"Small price, big delight!"

Here's a Sauvignon that will make everyone agree! With a flattering nose of citrus and verbena, followed by a delicately lemony palate and a very reasonable price! It's a perfect match for a seafood platter. In summer, it's a perfect match for aperitifs and barbecues.

"A round, well-structured and harmonious Malepère, a must-see!

A Malepère dominated by Merlot, with a powerful nose of red fruit and spicy notes, vanilla and eucalyptus to refresh the ensemble. It is characterized by good volume and remarkable aromatic persistence.

"Superb value for money for this harmonious wine".

"A hint of evolution in the color and aromas of this Merlot-dominated blend. The nose reveals a lovely complexity of cooked fruit, sweet spices and undergrowth. Soft tannins, a pleasant roundness and a very spicy finish add to the charm of this wine, which should be drunk on its fruit." (Le Guide Hachette 2024).
