Château d’Agassac Haut-Médoc

Timeless. Refined. A jewel of the Médoc.
Château d’Agassac stands among the finest examples of Haut-Médoc, celebrated for its remarkable balance between power and elegance. Recognised as a Cru Bourgeois Exceptionnel, this estate demonstrates the very best of Bordeaux tradition — a wine of authority that never loses its grace. Its vineyards, planted on gravelly slopes that drain perfectly and benefit from Atlantic breezes, produce grapes of exceptional quality, where Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot harmonize to create a wine that is both expressive and structured.

From the first glance in the glass, Château d’Agassac captivates with deep garnet hues and violet highlights that hint at the complexity to come. The nose is richly aromatic, offering layers of cassis, ripe blackberries, and plums, entwined with notes of cedar, graphite, and a subtle whisper of spice. With gentle aeration, more nuanced aromas unfold — hints of tobacco, leather, and a delicate minerality that reflects the exceptional terroir of the Médoc.

On the palate, it reveals its true character: a full-bodied red with a fine, silky tannin structure that carries the fruit elegantly, supported by mineral undertones and a whisper of oak. There’s a harmonious interplay of power and finesse, allowing the wine to evolve gracefully in the glass. It’s the kind of Bordeaux that rewards patience, inviting contemplation, and pairs beautifully with both classic French cuisine and the heartier fare favoured in Ireland. Every sip tells the story of centuries of careful craftsmanship and the dedication of a family committed to producing wines of lasting distinction.
