Description

Château Bourgneuf is located in the midst of the Grand Crus on the western side of a high plateau in Pomerol. Planted with a blend of 85% merlot and 15% Cabernet Franc, with a total production of only 5,000 cases. This lesser-known wine shows a highly developed bouquet, consistent quality, good richness, power and ageing potential.

Château Bourgneuf is a prestigious wine estate located in the Pomerol appellation of Bordeaux, France. With a history dating back centuries, the estate is renowned for its production of high-quality red wines. Covering approximately 9 hectares, the vineyard benefits from a unique terroir of clay and gravel soils, ideal for cultivating Merlot and Cabernet Franc grapes. Château Bourgneuf's wines are celebrated for their elegance, richness, and complexity, with ripe fruit flavors, silky tannins, and a distinctive sense of place. Under the guidance of the Vayron family, who have owned the estate since the mid-19th century, Château Bourgneuf continues to uphold its reputation for excellence, offering wines that showcase the finest expression of Pomerol's renowned winemaking heritage.

Reviews

91 points Wine Spectator (3/2008)
Very pretty aromas of blackberry, with hints of Indian spices and licorice, follow through to a full body, with velvety tannins and a fruity aftertaste. Has lots of green olive, dark olive and plum on the finish. Very balanced.

17.5/20 points April 2006
Known as Ch Bourgneuf-Vayron on the French market. Bright, healthy crimson. Alluring spice and intrigue with lovely smooth texture yet life and lift on the finish. Lots of vivacity and life and punch. Good savoury finish, Very neat. Unusually appetising for a Pomerol, suggesting long life and persistence. Beautifully crafted. Manages to be both very ripe and delicate in texture. Total flattery without resorting to simple sweetness or oak.
