Château de Gironville

Acquired by Vincent Mulliez in 2004, Château de Gironville is a Cru Bourgeois in the Haut-Médoc appellation with a history dating back to the 19th Century. Cited in the guide to Bordeaux and its wines in 1868, it has enjoyed a high reputation which has never diminished.Ideally situated in one of the most beautiful gravel outcrops in Macau, the vineyards benefit from their proximity to the Atlantic and theGironde. The vineyards have a typical composition of 45% Merlot, 45% Cabernet Sauvignon and 10% Petit Verdot. This high proportion of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot gives a singularity and personality to the wines.Following this great tradition of quality, Château de Gironville continues to strive towards perfection. Destemming, slow extraction and the use of 20% new barriques for maturation add to the power and richness of the wine, which is delicately balanced between the classic and the modern.
