The 2024 Meyney is another big step in the right direction for this re-emerging Saint-Estèphe estate. In 2024, Meyney is refined yet still very deep, without the heaviness that was once typical here. It will be interesting to see in future years how much of that is the new style here and how much is the vintage. Either way, the 2024 Meyney is a standout. Drinking range: 2029 - 2044 Rating: 92-94 Antonio Galloni, www.vinous.com (Apr 2025)
Leafy character on the opening, but it settles into itself and the mid palate fills out with cocoa bean and fleshy cherry pit, fresh acidities, uplift on the finish. Drinking range: 2030 - 2042 Rating: 89 Jane Anson, www.janeanson.com (May 2025)
64 CS 26 M 10 PV 13% Bright vibrant lifted violet aromas with cassis and damson fruit. Lean in the mouth with liquorice iodine and fresh herbs. Bright acidity and taut tannins. This will need a few years in bottle fully to come around, but should be good in around six years or so. Rating: 91 Rod Smith MW, www.timatkin.com (Apr 2025)
Château Meyney
Chateau Meyney in St. Estephe has a long history starting in the 1662, when it is mentioned in records as a convent, making it one of the oldest estates in the Médoc. It occupies a gravelly bank facing the Gironde and is a neighbour of Montrose.
The 51 hectare vineyard with vines averaging between 35 and 40 years old is planted with 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot and 10% Petit Verdot. The gravel based terroir has a large streak of blue clay close to three metres thick.
In 2004, Meyney was bought by CA Grands Châteaux, also owners of Château de Rayne Vigneau and Château Grand-Puy Ducasse. They have employed Hubert de Boüard as consulting oenologist.
