The Story

Château Bellegrave is located in Pauillac in the Northern part of Bordeaux. It is surounded by prestigious neighbors such as Chateau Latour, Pichon-Longueville and Lynch Bages. It was formerly the property of M. Armand Roux before it was purchased by his business partner, M. H. Van-Der-Voort in 1901. It was in 1997 that J.P. Meffre, already owners of Chateau du Glana and Lalande in Saint-Julien, purchased the estate. It is currently managed by his grandsons, Julien and Ludovic Meffre.
The vineyard is 8.30 ha in size, which is relatively small. The soil is mainly composed of Garonne Gravels. They apply small yields and all of the grapes are hand-harvested. The wine is fermented in temperature-controlled vats and aged around 12 months in 45% New French Oak. Only 2,000 cases produced annually. This is one of the handful of non-classified Pauillac that is still family-owned, which makes it an incredible value to the consumer. Chateau Bellegrave is producing an exceptional elegant and refined wine, that is still available at affordable prices. It is an incredible discovery.
