Fort Médoc
Haut-Médoc AOC – Bordeaux – France
Fort Médoc was, until 2017, the historic cuvée of the Fort Médoc Wine Growers’ Winery.
It is produced today by the Vignerons Associés de Moulis, Listrac and Cussac-Fort-Médoc, and perfectly represents what a wine from the AOC Haut-Médoc is: power, balance, and roundness.
Certified HVE3 as of the 2019 vintage.
