CHATEAU POUJEAUX

Along with Château Chasse-Spleen this is the most highly regarded wine in the Moulisen- Médoc area. Its history can be traced back to the 16th Century, when it was under the same ownership as Château Latour.

The property suffered over time from a surfeit of sales and was broken up in the early 20th Century, Thanks to the ministrations of the Theil family, from 1921 on that situation was reversed, with the Theils doing much to endow the wine with an elevated reputation.

Poujeaux was eventually purchased in 2008 by Clos Fourtet owners, the Cuvelier family. With consultant Stéphane Derononcourt on hand, Philippe Cuvelier and his son Matthieu are maintaining the wine’s traditionally generous but delicate style while raising the property’s potential for excellence through modernisation and sustainable viticultural practices.

Organic farming is now used with lower yields, and they are also experimenting with biodynamics. The make-up is 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Merlot, 5 % Cabernet Franc and 5% Petit Verdot. One of the best value wines on the Left Bank.
