Lussac-Saint-Émilion | Local Wine Appellation From Gironde, France | TasteAtlas

Lussac-Saint-Émilion

Lussac-Saint-Émilion is a French appellation located in the Libourne wine region of Bordeaux that produces red wines primarily based on Merlot, while other permitted varieties include Malbec, Cabernet Franc, and Cabernet Sauvignon.


These complex, velvety, and well-structured wines display both power and finesse. Their primary aromas typically include notes of red fruit that are accompanied by nuances of prunes, leather, spices, and undergrowth. Lussac-Saint-Émilion wines are an excellent match to grilled or braised beef or pork, as well as hearty meat-based stews.
