Chateau Meyney Saint Estephe 2019

57% Cabernet Sauvignon, 27% Merlot, 16% Petit Verdot.

Aromas of sweet cherries and berries mingled with tobacco, loamy soil and petals introduce the 2019 Meyney, a medium to full-bodied, seamless and lively wine with fine depth at the core, powdery tannins and an attractive sense of completeness. This is an understated but charming Saint-Estephe that has turned out nicely in bottle. Drink 2025-2045. 91 Points. William Kelley, The Wine Advocate.

The 2019 Meyney has a well-defined, fragrant, floral bouquet of ample red currant and cranberry fruit, touches of pencil shaving and smoke emerging with aeration, followed later by the tertiary aspect that one associates with the appellation. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy black fruit, black pepper and graphite, tightening toward the finish but still showing fine length. This is a very fine Meyney that may warrant a higher score down the line. Drink 2024 - 2048. 92+ Points. Neal Martin, Vinous.
