Once upon a time, you could trade a baguette, 6 cloves of garlic and a small goose for a Grand Cru Bordeaux. Sure, everyone knew they were exceptional but farm-hands could afford to drink them for lunch, paired with a spam sandwich. Maybe nostalgia and episodes of Allo' Allo' are distorting our memory... Regardless, these days, Grand Cru Bordeaux is anything but affordable; their worldwide mystique has shot prices into the stratosphere. What can we do, are we going to stop drinking quality Bordeaux? Not on your Nelly! With the unattainability of Grand Cru Classé wines its given the opportunity for Cru Bourgeois Bordeauxs such as this one, to show their incredible worth. Powerful, yet approachable with a wonderful amount of age, demonstrates you don't need to sell your private jet, to drink great Bordeaux.
Chateau Meynieu is located in the heart of the Médoc, this charming 19th century residence and vineyard nestle in a verdant countryside. Harvesting at Chateau Meynieu is late to ensure perfectly ripe grapes, which are sorted to ensure only the best grapes go into the wine. During fermentation, the must is frequently run-off and recycled to ensure an even temperature. The wine is then aged in oak-casks (30-40% new each year), for around 15 months. The wine is regularly racked and naturally fined without filtration, it is bottled and stored in the underground cellar in ideal temperature and hydrometric conditions.
