Château Dutruch Grand Poujeaux 2020 Moulis-en-Médoc (3L)

Château Dutruch Grand Poujeaux originated in the hamlet of Grand-Poujeaux, in Moulis-en-Médoc, in the 1850s. The estate was named after the Dutruch family and appeared in the 1868 wine reference work Féret. In 1967 François Cordonnier took over the property, expanded the vineyard and made it a family estate, later passed to his four nephews and niece. In 2016 François Cordonnier, the eldest of that next generation, brought the property back into single ownership, with extra emphasis on vineyard work and improving cultivation methods. The gravel soils of Grand-Poujeaux form the core of the story, as a nineteenth-century estate is further built by a family that has added its own history since the 1960s.
