Chapelle de Meyney ("the Chapel of Meyney"), second wine of Chateau Meyney, one of the oldest estates in the Medoc. Deep Ruby red color, purple hues, with aromas of black fruits, herb, tobacco and earthy notes. On the palate flavors of plums and black currants with cacao and tobacco spice, on a well balanced frame. Fine tight tannins, long finish ending with fruit, earthy spice and cedar character. Starting to drink well now.

Good tannins structure some nice fruits, but a tad young and tight. Taste later.

Very complex and austere. One of my favorites from the Bordeaux Wine Council Tasting. Black smoky fruit, pencil lead, and tobacco.
