Over het wijnhuis | Château Meyney is gevestigd in Saint-Estèphe. Het wijnhuis kent een lange historie, want al in 1660 plantten monniken hier wijnstokken aan. Daarvoor was het een klooster. Sinds 2004 is het château in handen van CA Grands Crus. |

Awards | "Blueberry, blackcurrant, clove, dark chocolate, praline and gravel on the nose. It’s full-bodied with firm, fine-grained tannins. Focused, chewy and layered. Fantastic effort here. Try from 2025." - James Suckling "Tasted blind. Lifted, silky mineral nose. Sweet ink sensation and some greenness. Pretty austere. Definitely will always need some chewy food! 14.5%. Drink 2030 – 2045" - Jancis Robinson "The 2018 Meyney is every bit as impressive as it was en primeur. Technical Director Anne Le Naour has done a terrific job in reining in some of the excess weight and power of previous vintages, but without sacrificing richness. Classy and layered, Meyney boasts fabulous depth and tons of character. Ripe red/purplish fruit, spice, blood orange, smoke and incense are some of the many aromas and flavors that mesh together. The 2018 offers striking immediacy, but also has enough structure to develop well in bottle for 15-20 years, maybe more. The 2018 Meyney is a wine of immense pleasure. Best of all, it is a tremendous value." - Vinous "It's clear that this is hugely concentrated, as is the Montrose right next door, but there's also beautiful juice and freshness underneath the black fruits and the powerful grip. Tannins, acidity and fruit: it's all there. This is great quality and should be long-lived, with a rich palate, evenly balanced and austere in all the right places. Another good vintage at this increasingly impressive property. Drinking Window 2024 - 2040" - Decanter |
