A little $9.99 Pinot Noir to start the weekend?
So we’re at this trade show called Wine Paris back in February (someone has to do it… you know how it is), meeting with the folks from Château Malartic. Toward the end of the meeting they said, “You need to meet our friends at Château Dauzac."
Of course, we obliged.
The next 40 minutes blew my mind.
Let’s start with the background: Château Dauzac is one of those estates that’s long been respected but rarely shouted about — reminds me a bit of Laurel Glen in its prime. It sits in the heart of Margaux and is now owned by the Perrodo family, who’ve poured resources and patience into bringing the estate back to form. The results are remarkable: modern precision meets old-school Bordeaux class.
Aurore de Dauzac is the estate’s second wine, but calling it that doesn’t do it justice. I assumed it would be one of those “we use the leftover barrels for this” kind of things. Turns out, not even close.
This isn’t a junior version. This wine comes from a single vineyard plot on the far eastern edge of the Dauzac estate, a site historically called the “rising-sun vines” (Aurore meaning “dawn” in French). The soils are fine and sandy; the vines are densely planted and hand-harvested. Everything about it is deliberate.
That’s what makes it special: you’re getting a Margaux “second wine” treated with the same care as a classified growth. The plot selection is tight, the farming meticulous — this isn’t “everyday Bordeaux.” It’s a statement.
And here’s where it gets interesting. In an age where Bordeaux prices know no ceiling, this bottle — with its single-vineyard origin, hand-harvested fruit, and the pedigree of Château Dauzac — comes in at $34.99 per bottle.
I had two glasses the other night (pic above of the bottle) and I can confirm the wine is as stunning as it was when we tasted it at the trade show. 93% sure this is my Thanksgiving wine…so I’m in for a 6 pack. I also know we will probably drink all six this weekend with Halloween, college football, Sunday Funday etc. 😂
Let's do this!!
