Château Magrez Le Peyre

Location : Saint-Émilion, Bordeaux, France

History and Background

Château Magrez Le Peyre is an exclusive winery in the renowned Saint-Émilion wine region in Bordeaux. The winery has been owned since 2016 by renowned winemaker and entrepreneur Bernard Magrez, who is known for owning several top vineyards around the world. Bernard Magrez has built a reputation for producing high-quality wines with strong character and expression of the terroir.

Vineyard and Terroir

  • Vineyard Size : The vineyards of Château Magrez Le Peyre cover a relatively small area, which contributes to the exclusivity of the wine.
  • Soil : The vineyards are located on Saint-Émilion's characteristic limestone and clay soils, which are ideal for growing Merlot and Cabernet Franc.
  • Grape varieties : The vineyard is mainly planted with Merlot, supplemented with smaller amounts of Cabernet Franc.

Winemaking

  • Harvest : The grapes are picked by hand to ensure that only the best fruits are selected.
  • Vinification : Winemaking takes place in modern, temperature-controlled facilities, combining traditional techniques with innovative methods to maximize quality.
  • Maturation : After fermentation, the wine matures in French oak barrels, some of which are new. This gives the wine extra depth and complexity.

Characteristics of the Wine

  • Color : Deep ruby red to purple color.
  • Aromas : Rich and complex aromas of ripe black fruits such as blackcurrants and plums, combined with notes of vanilla, cedar wood, mocha and spices.
  • Taste : Full and powerful with a firm structure. The wine has well-integrated tannins and a long, refined aftertaste. Black fruit flavors are complemented by hints of oak, chocolate and spices.
  • Blend : Merlot and Cabernet Franc.

Suckling (92093/100) - This is a new wine from here with a solid center palate of juicy fruit and firm and silky tannins that follow through to a fresh finish. Pretty. Shows excellent potential. Small production.

Sommy Pairing Beschrijving Deze 2017 Château Magrez Le Peyre toont een diepe robijnkleur met rijke aroma's van rijpe zwarte bessen en pruimen, aangevuld met vanille, cederhout, mokka en warme specerijen en een volle, krachtige smaak met zijdezachte tannines en een lange, verfijnde afdronk. Door de stevige structuur, rijpe fruitigheid en elegante eikeninvloeden begeleidt hij perfect rijke rundvlees- en lamsgerechten, hartig wild en gerijpte kazen; het beste resultaat krijgt u bij langzaam gegaard of gegrild vlees zoals entrecote of lamsbout met een reductiesaus op basis van rode wijn, bij wild een gestoofd of gebraden bereiding met kruiden en bessensaus, en bij kaas vooral stevige, licht gerijpte varianten.
