Chante Coucou is the flagship cuvée of Domaine Elian Da Ros, a structured Bordeaux-style blend of roughly 50% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Malbec, and 10% Syrah grown around the commune of Cocumont in the Côtes du Marmandais. Each variety is vinified and aged separately in used barrels for 20-24 months before blending, producing a wine of real depth — dark fruit, spice, and a savory, mineral-tinged finish that reflects the estate's biodynamic farming.
Chante Coucou is the wine that proves Côtes du Marmandais deserves a seat at the table with Bordeaux's best — structured, spice-laced, and built to age.
New to wine?
The domaine's flagship red — a structured, spice-driven Bordeaux-style blend that shows how serious the lesser-known Côtes du Marmandais can be.
Food Pairings
Best paired with hearty Southwest French dishes such as duck breast, lamb cutlets, or a classic cassoulet. Vegetarian dishes like lentil stew with root vegetables or grilled aubergine with tapenade also bring out its savory, spicy character.
