Solid, if a bit chunky in feel, with a slightly squared-off charcoal and ganache frame surrounding a core of dark plum, black currant and licorice root. Shows more austerity than flesh, but displays outstanding length and cut. This has added lots of grip in élevage. For fans of the taut style. Best from 2016 through 2026. 11,250 cases made.

Deep garnet in color, the nose of the 2010 Meyney is quite tired, with some oxidized/nutty notes and vague notions of prunes and dried figs plus a tobacco waft in the undercurrent. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is drying out and overly chewy with a flat finish.

Situated above the Gironde estuary in the Saint-Estèphe appellation, Château Meyney neighbors the famed Château Montrose. The estate is home to 51 hectares of vineyards planted on clay-gravel soils. The single-vineyard block cultivates 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot and 10% Petit Verdot. This Cru Bourgeois classified estate is now owned by a subsidiary of the Groupe Crédit Agricole – CA Grands Crus. Hubert de Bouärd acts as consulting winemaker, while Anne Le Naour plays the role of technical director.
