About Winery
Château Couhins, a renowned estate in Pessac-Léognan, boasts a history that stretches back to the 17th century. Initially known as "Bourdieu de la Gravette," it was owned by the Banchereau family, notable Bordeaux lawyers. The estate evolved, with the Hanappier family acquiring it in 1883 and undertaking significant renovations. Later, it became part of the Gasqueton family's holdings, owners of Château Calon-Ségur. In 1967, André Lurton leased the estate and later purchased a portion of the vineyard from the INRA (French National Institute of Agricultural Research), establishing Château Couhins-Lurton. Today, Château Couhins-Lurton is known for its exceptional white wines, with a focus on Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon, and is recognized as a Cru Classé de Graves.
