|
Alain Meunier and his wife, Sophie own this 7 hectare vineyard estate based at Premaux-Prissey, south of Nuits, additionally they have vineyard holdings in many parts of the Cotes de Nuits. Attention to detail and a passion for their work has produced wines with an exciting and enviable reputation. The grapes are grown organically and, to maximise the fruit, all the grapes are de-stemmed before vinification. These are powerful, rich wines that are bottled early to protect their intense, concentrated fruit. The wines are only racked before bottling, so there is 15-18 months of extended lees contact. The grand crus are aged in 100% new French oak, and the premier crus in 80%. This wine is a great reflection of the region with plenty of depth, structure and black fruit flavours. The blackberry and plum aromas follow through onto the palate with soft silky tannins and a great finish. (6 x 75 cl)

Chateau de Pez Cru Bourgeois Saint Estephe
Description: The domaine of Pez, created in the 15th century, is, along with Calon, the oldest in Saint Estephe. In 1452, squire Jean de Briscos ruled the estate: in 1526 the nobleman Ducos was master, followed by Jean de Pontac in 1585. The Pontac family, who likewise created Haut Brion, gave Pez its vineyards. The property remained in the hands of descendants... the marquis d'Aulede and count de Fumel, until the French Revolution. Sold as a property of the state, the domaine belonged to the Tarteiron and Dousson families in succession. It was purchased in 1995 by Champagne Louis Roederer. Chateau de Pez is located west of the town of Saint Estephe, the estate consists of 30 continuous hectares, with 24 hectares under vine, planted to prime grape varieties, mainly Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon. The Chateau de Pez winery remains resolutely faithful to wood. The blend is composed in December, then the wine is stored on barrels and racked every 3 months. After approx. 1 year, roughly midway through the maturation process, the wine is fined using fresh egg whites. It is to be noted that the wine undergoes absolutely no filtration. Chateau de Pez exhibits deep colour and harmonious composition. This complete, rich, dense wine merits ageing. Thanks to the quality of its production, Chateau de Pez is counted amongst the most highly reputed crus of the Medoc. Deep, opaque ruby hue. Forward, opulent spice box, black fruit and mineral aromas. A lush entry leads to a moderately full bodied palate with velvety tannins. Supple and hedonistic with very good flavor intensity. Grippy finish. (12 x 75 cl)
