Product: 2021 Chateau Meyney, Saint-Estephe
Meyney’s soils consist of heavy clay where a high proportion of Petit Verdot is planted on a poor-draining plot near the river Gironde giving Meyney its signature characteristics. Sustainably farmed grapes are fermented in vats before maturation for 16-18 months, French oak barrels, 30-40% new oak. On the nose juicy cassis, cherry, blackberries and soft vanilla espresso are prevalent. The palate is medium bodied with fleshy dark berries, pomegranate and cedar finishing with bright acidity and structured finely integrated tannins. Château Meyney was one of the first sites in the Médoc to be planted with vines. In 1662, it was a convent mentioned in records under the names Couvent des Feuillants or Prieuré des Couleys. It belonged to the Feuillants monks. Today, the estate stretches over some of the best hilltops above the Gironde Estuary. The river lying alongside the first rows of vines makes for a majestic, serene landscape. The estate belonged to the Luetkens family for several generations, and was then acquired by Mr Désiré Cordier in 1919. In 2004, CA Grands Crus, a subsidiary of the Groupe Crédit Agricole, acquired Château Meyney, with a determination to strengthen the potential of this outstanding cru. Meyney benefits from an exceptional site, a unique terroir, a rich and long history dating back to the 16th century, making it an outstanding Medoc estate. Food pairing: Herb crusted lamb rack, venison and game, grilled vegetables with goats cheese salad, aged cheeses.
