Goulee made its debut with the 2003 vintage.  At first, the wine was sold under the name of Goulee. That was later changed to Goulee by Cos d’Estourne. The wine takes its name from a small, local port, le Port de-Goulee, which located in the northern area of the Medoc. You follow the D2 past Pauillac and keep going north until you are past St. Estephe to get there.

The vineyards of Goulee are located on gravely hills that face the Gironde river. Goulee, which was at one time an island surrounded by the waters of the Gironde river, enjoys a terroir of deep layers of gravel in their cool soils. The vines are planted to a density of 5,700 vines per hectare. They use high trellising and high canopy management in their vineyards.

The vineyard of Goulee is planted to 80% Cabernet Sauvignon and 20% Merlot for the red wine. Goulee also produces a white Bordeaux wine which is a blend of 80% Sauvignon Blanc and 20% Semillon . The vines for the white wine come from a different terroir.

The wine of Goulee by Cos d’Estournel is vinifed at Marbuzet. The choice to vinify Goulee at Marbuzet, (a Cru Bourgeois Exceptionnel,) which is located close by in the St. Estephe appellation was reasonable, as Marbuzet is also owned by Michel Reybier, the owner of Goulee and of course, Chateau Cos d’Estournel.

To produce the red wine of Goulee by Cos d’Estournel, vinification takes place in temperature controlled, small, conical truncated shaped, stainless steel vats. The wine is aged in 50% new, French oak barrels. The production is close to 6,000 cases per year.

Gouleee Blanc, which is in essence, the second wine of Cos d’Estournel Blanc, is vinified entirely in barrel. There is no malolactic fermenetation or skin contact. The wine is aged on its fine lees.

Goulee by Cos d’Estournel is a ripe, forward, rich, fleshy style of Bordeaux wine that offers one of the better price to quality ratio’s in value priced Bordeaux. Goulee is produced by much of the same technical team that makes Chateau Cos d’Estournel.
