Old-fashioned label. Very slightly rustic but sweet and ripe. Many St-Émilion enthusiasts would LOVE this! Blood and guts here! VGV Drinking range: 2023 - 2030 Rating: 16.5 Jancis Robinson OBE MW - www.JancisRobinson.com (Oct 2023)

Simply delicious Bordeaux from the talented young Mathieu Ternault. A recent visit reminded us of the immense quality of the work he is doing here at this well placed family estate. As we stood in front of the winery looking out over the neighbouring properties like Cheval Blanc, VCC and Chateau Petrus who are just over the Barbanne stream, it really brought home the outstanding position of the Montaiguillon vineyards and when you taste this Merlot heavy Claret the quality is clear. Tasting against far greater names this is a standout bargain - elegant, with a lovely weight of fruit - but high toned and very true - this hits all the right notes. A sadly all too rare bargain for this part of the world - this will not disappoint.L&S (Dec 2022)
Punching way above its price tag, this has bright red fruit and perfect texture.Will Lyons, The Sunday Times (Apr 2024)
The 2019 Montaiguillon is a very pretty, understated wine with lovely floral and savory character to play off the dark red fruit, cedar, leather and tobacco flavors. Medium in body. Drinking range: 2023 - 2034 Rating: 89 Antonio Galloni, www.vinous.com (Feb 2022)
Château Montaiguillon
A well regarded 28ha property on the borders of St Georges-St Emilion owned by the Amart family since 1949 and run for the last 20 years by the charming Chantal. Michel Rolland advises.
