Château Meyney Saint Estèphe Cru Bourgeois 2018

A tiny parcel of 95-point Bordeaux from a hot-tip Saint-Estèphe estate packed in wooden cases … yours for just £27 a bottle, down from £40.

Château Meyney is one of the oldest estates in Saint-Estèphe and sits right next door to the legendary Château Montrose, atop the same ridge. A consistent overachiever, its wines frequently rival or even outclass its illustrious neighbour in blind tastings.

2018 was an absolute standout vintage at Meyney and the wine received unanimously high scores from the leading wine experts – 95 points from James Suckling, 94 points from Jane Anson, 93 points from Antonio Galloni and more!

The wines of this estate are always among the best value in Bordeaux, but that’s especially the case with this new parcel. Stocks are very limited – reserve now for delivery in June.

“It’s clear that this is hugely concentrated, as is the Montrose right next door, but there’s also beautiful juice and freshness beneath 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” 94 points, Decanter.
