RATINGS

95James Suckling

Spicy, stony and floral at the same time with deep blue fruit and hints of pine, incense and cloves. Veins of tannins show a mineral verve. This is firm, powerful and long.

92Vinous / IWC

...has an intense, finely delineated bouquet with blackberry, bilberry, loam and light briny scents that unfold with confidence...palate is medium-bodied, fresh and vibrant, with firm tannins. It is not dissimilar to the Lilian Ladouys in style, though there is a touch more finesse and pepperiness on the finish.

92.2CellarTracker

17+ Jancis Robinson

Lively and lifted with a touch of well-integrated vanilla oak. Dark fruit and pencil lead as it opens. Ripe and juicy but keen and long as well. Plenty of polished tannin behind. Good acidity and refreshment. Dry but not drying finish. Poised and really rather fine.

PRODUCER

Château Meyney

Château Meyney is in St.-Estephe, on the left bank of the Gironde River in Bordeaux. The 126-acre estate is classified as a Cru Bourgeois Exceptional. The estate dates to the 17th century when it was the site of a convent. After the French Revolution it became privately owned and today it is owned by Credit Agricole, a large French bank that owns a portfolio of wine estates. Meyney is planted to 56% Merlot, 26% Cabernet Sauvignon, 9 % Petit Verdot and 9 % Cabernet Franc. Nearly 300,000 bottles are produced a year. The second label is Prieur du Château Meyney.

REGION

France, Bordeaux, St.-Estephe

Saint-Estèphe is in the northern Médoc, on the left bank of the Gironde River. Although it has no First Growth estates, its five Second, Third, Fourth and Fifth Growth châteaux are notable, and, in recent decades, have become favorites with reviewers and consumers. Some reviewers also note that the appellation is today making excellent Cru Bourgeois wines, which frequently offer good value. There are 3,404 acres of vineyards and a variety of soil types, from gravelly soil to soil with significant sand or clay. The two Second Growth Châteaux in St.-Estephe are Cos d’Estournel and Montrose. The Third Growth Calon-Ségur is widely admired. The principal grapes grown are Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, with small amounts of Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot.
