Château Tayac
シャトー・タイヤック（マルゴー）
Elegant, 4-generation family Margaux estate using Cousinié method and HVE3 certification (distinct from other Château Tayac estates in Bordeaux)
Located in Soussans, in the heart of the Margaux appellation, Château Tayac is a family-run estate managed by the Portet family for four generations. The 37-hectare vineyard is planted on gravelly soils with sunny exposure. The estate follows the Cousinié method, focusing on soil balance and vine health, and holds HVE3 environmental certification. The wines are typically a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Petit Verdot, fermented in stainless steel and cement vats, then aged for 10–12 months in French oak barrels. Not to be confused with the Château Tayac estates in other Bordeaux appellations such as Bourg.
