Château Meyney
On the hilltops of Saint‑Estèphe, just above the Gironde, Château Meyney sits where monastic order once met vineyard work. Vines were planted here as early as 1625; by 1662 the Feuillants priory had left such a strong imprint that the date still travels with the estate’s identity.
A rare asset in the Médoc, the vineyard forms a largely contiguous block on gravel‑clay rises with natural drainage. Cabernet Sauvignon provides backbone, Merlot builds texture, and Petit Verdot adds contour; fermentation is temperature‑controlled, maceration is deliberate, and élevage in French oak seeks depth with restraint.
The estate’s story also carries an intriguing absence: at the time of the 1855 classification, Meyney might have been put forward, yet its owners presented another property. That missed title has become a kind of independence—Saint‑Estèphe measured not by medals, but by the quiet authority of place and craft.Château Meyney
