Characteristics and tasting tips for Château Meyney 2023

Tasting

This vintage seduces with its delicacy, power and great finesse.

The refinement and precision of a Saint-Estèphe wine

The estate

Located on the left bank of Bordeaux, the Château Meyney has an exceptional location, near the estuary of the Gironde. With origins dating back to 1662, this property of the Crédit Agricole Grands Crus subsidiary has experienced a remarkable qualitative rise in recent decades. The wines of Château Meyney thus stand out among the most beautiful references of the Saint-Estèphe appellation and the Médoc.

The vineyard

Château Meyney 2023 is a Saint-Estèphe wine from a vineyard of about fifty hectares in one piece, close to the terroir of Château Montrose. The vineyard is planted on Garonne gravel soils with a notable peculiarity. A 3-meter thick vein of blue clay, such as the one found on the terroir of Château Pétrus, is buried in the subsoil.

Vinification and ageing

Once the manual harvest is done, the grapes are subject to a double sorting, first in the vineyard and then in the cellar. Gentle and parcel vinifications. Ageing in French oak barrels for 18 months.

Blend

Cabernet Sauvignon (50%)
Merlot (38%)
Petit Verdot (12%).
