"château meyney is one of the oldest properties in the médoc (it dates back to 1662). it was bought in 2004 by ca grands crus, a subsidiary of crédit agricole. anne le naour is the technical director, assisted by hubert de bouärd (also co-owner of château angélus). the estate extends over 51 hectares planted on siliceous gravel with vines that are on average 35 to 40 years old. the grape varieties are 50% cabernet sauvignon, 35% merlot and 15% petit verdot. the grapes are harvested by hand and around 170,000 bottles of château meyney are produced each year. a second wine, prieur de meyney, is also produced in similar quantities to the first wine. after a double sorting of the grapes, they are vatted separately in stainless steel and thermo-regulated concrete tanks. the wine is aged for 18 to 24 months in oak barrels (40% of which are new). in recent vintages, the wines have reached an excellent level and have potential. if you lack patience, you will want no part of the 1988. more brutally tannic than the 1989, yet packed with fruit, the 1988 will need at least a decade of cellaring. it recalls the wonderful 1975 meyney that is just now beginning to drink well.
