Château Mongravey is located in Arsac in the famous Margaux appellation, about 22 kilometers northwest of Bordeaux. Created in 1980 by Régis Bernaleau by combining several prime parcels in Margaux, the estate produces an exceptional wine due to its unique location between Château Giscours (3ème Grand Cru Classé) and Château du Tertre (5ème Grand Cru Classé). The charismatic Karin Bernaleau joined the estate in 1999 and directs marketing and distribution for Mongravey. Her son, Jérôme, has now joined the family five year ago and is involved in the viticulture and vinification. 

It became a “Cru Bourgeois” in the 2003 Classification and was upgraded to “Cru Bourgeois Supérieur” in the 2020 Classification. Mongravey is one of the best Margaux wines available today, surpassing many of the prestigious Classified Growths in quality and over-delivering for the price.  

The vineyard is 36 acres in size planted mostly on gravely soil with low yields. After harvest from mid-September to mid-October, the wine is vinified in separate vats and undergoes cold maceration for 5 days to maximize color and to soften the tannins . The alcoholic fermentation lasts for 10 days and 50% of the wine undergoes malolactic fermentation in barrels. Finally, the wine ages 12-14 months in 60% new French oak before being bottled.

 

Blend: 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 33% Merlot, 2% Cabernet Franc

 

CRITICAL ACCLAIM 

WE93, Wine Enthusiast

"This is the latest release from this family-run estate in Margaux. A rich wine, it's still shot through with acidity and fresh black currant fruits. The wine is just setting out on its development. Drink from 2027."
 

JS92, James Suckling

"Some floral notes with dark berries, currants and stones. Medium body with a firm tannin structure. Mineral and firm. Well structured."
