Meyney's vineyards trace back to Cistercian monks in the 17th century, and that monastic precision has returned under consultant Hubert de Bouard since 2013. The 2020 is a turning point: dark currants, cherries, tobacco, and damp earth with fine-grained tannins and terrific balance. Fifty-two percent Cabernet Sauvignon with Merlot and Petit Verdot from vineyards near the Gironde estuary. This is classic Saint-Estèphe that ages beautifully without shouting—a wine where a great year and great winemaking align.

Antonio Galloni

94 points

"The 2020 Meyney turned out beautifully. Fresh, vibrant and full of character, the 2020 impresses with its energy and delineation. Dark cherry, rose petal, blood orange, sage, mint and white pepper all race out of the glass. The 2020 is bold and yet refined. There is certainly plenty to admire." —Antonio Galloni

Robert Parker

"A strong performance for this improving estate, the 2020 Meyney unwinds in the glass with aromas of dark berries, plums, violets, cigar box and loamy soil. Medium to full-bodied, with a pure and fleshy core of fruit framed by sweet, powdery tannins and lively acids, it has retained energy and balance in this warm vintage." —William Kelley

"Deepest crimson, like damson skins. Sweet and dark-fruited at the same time. Savoury too. Not yet open but complex. Rich fruit filling out elegant dry tannins, dark-fruited and long. Power yet refined."

Decanter

93 points

"Lovely aromatic expression, floral and richly scented with ripe black cherry and salty blueberry. Cool and charming, this makes an impact straight away with a push of ripe, gently chewy tannins which expand and coat the mouth. More expansive and less narrow than some from this appellation at this point. Feels a bit more approachable but still with structure and push. Lots of freshness, wide, minty and salty. Nuanced, savoury and satisfying."

Wine Spectator

92 points

"Solidly built, with lilac, red currant and mulled damson plum notes that mix well, all held by a thin but tensile iron note through the middle, which then extends a mouthwatering feel on the finish."

Wine Enthusiast

94 points

"This estate has produced a densely textured wine, rich in tannins and packed with dark, concentrated black fruits. There is a muscular character, structured and with fine promise for long-term aging." —Roger Voss

Braised short ribs, beef bourguignon, or herb-roasted lamb. The earthy undertones and tobacco complexity demand substantial food.
