Chateau Piney Description
Tasting Notes: A small, under-the-radar Bordeaux, this excellent value shows a deep ruby color enhanced by aromas of tobacco, cedar, leather and blueberries. Dry, with firm tannins, the palate provides flavors of dark berries, mocha, and leather. Very enjoyable and excellent at this price point.
Family owned and produced since its founding in 1894, the property is located in the heart of the Saint-Émilion region and listed as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. Château Piney has belonged to the same family for 5 generations. Since 2016, siblings Etienne Laveau and his sister Blandine Bénédetti have managed the operations with a very environmental and sustainable approach. The farm received its Organic certification in 2017.
