Chateau Couronneau, Christophe et Grégoire Piat
"Christophe and Grégoire Piat have been working organically for many years. They have now converted to biodynamics after seeing the obvious benefits of this method of production. They even organize training courses for other producers in the region.
Their enormous qualitative efforts resulted in the 2009 vintage, which was exceptional. Their wines win medal after medal. They won the "Prize of excellence" of the 2011 organic vintage fair with the "Ecuyer" cuvée (in other words: best wine of the fair!) and were rewarded with the Gold medal from the Bordeaux Supérieur syndicate, for having produced the best red Bordeaux among more than 2,200 samples presented.
The tannins of the different cuvées are always ample, fat and fleshy. They are wonderful natural anti-oxidants. They are nevertheless always round and smooth because the property is planted almost exclusively with Merlot. "
