WINE DESCRIPTION
Elian Da Ros' estate in Cocumont on the Côtes du Marmandais embodies his childhood dream of winemaking. Raised in a farming family, Elian pursued studies in viticulture and oenology at the age of 14. After five years in Alsace, he returned to build his cellar, producing his inaugural vintage in 1998. The 19-hectare property, certified organic since 2000 and biodynamic since 2002, thrives on the left bank of the Garonne. Chante Coucou, a blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec, and Syrah, showcases vines rooted in diverse soils. Vinification in open concrete vessels and maturation in demi-muids and barrels result in this expressive wine.
