It would be difficult to miss the imposing coat of arm on the
label. There is no doubt, Antoine Pouget comes from the vineyard of the prestigious Château Pouget. Its name pays homage to the founder of the vineyard, François-Antoine Pouget, King counsellor
during the reign of Louis XV. The Duke de Richelieu is at the origin of the coat of arms and motto of Château
Pouget. «L’amour sur ton cœur étendra sa puissance. Ton verbe sera clair comme le chant du Coq. A l’égal du Lion tu ne craindras le choc. Si de cestuy nectar tu te remplis la panse.»
Since 1906, the estate has been in the hands of the Guillemet family. Technical director Lucien
Guillemet applies his vast experience into making sure the wine he produces expresses all the beauty of these gravel soils envied the world over. He manages Château Pouget with conviction, but also
subtlety.
A well rounded, accessible, gourmet and fruity wine with balance and
harmony, Antoine Pouget is a feminine wine. Silky and smooth, this wine
possesses the balance and harmony characteristic of the finest Margaux wines.
