critic reviews

92/100Neal Martin,Vinous

The 2017 Meyney is building upon its promising showing after bottling. It has a polished, well-defined bouquet of blackberry, cedar, mint and damp clay/potter's wheel, perhaps demonstrating even more precision than a few months ago. The palate displays very fine tannins and good grip on the clove-tinged finish. A judiciously spiced and impressively proportioned Saint-Estèphe; a decade ago, under the same growing growing conditions, Meyney would not have produced a wine nearly as good as this 2017. Tasted at a vertical at Château Meyney.

90+/100Lisa Perrotti-Brown,Robert Parker Wine Advocate

Medium to deep garnet-purple, the 2017 Meyney opens a little broody, giving way to red cherries, black berries and stewed tea scents with a waft of dried herbs. Medium-bodied, the palate is chock-full of vibrant black fruits with ripe, grainy tannins and a refreshing kick to the finish.
