The Hetrakul family, from a distinguished Thai lineage, acquired the château over two decades ago and pushed the estate toward organic farming, a conversion completed in 2011. The vineyard spans 18 hectares in the Haut-Médoc appellation, with an additional 2 hectares in the prestigious Margaux terroir, and was awarded Cru Bourgeois Supérieur status in 2020, recognition of the estate's rising quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"M\" de Meyre carries the Haut-Médoc appellation and is built from a blend of 55% Merlot and 45% Cabernet Sauvignon, aged first in stainless steel before spending six months in French oak barrels. Merlot lends the wine its round, fruit-forward core, while Cabernet Sauvignon supplies structure and grip, together producing a wine designed to age gracefully over 8 to 10 years. Expect a ruby color, aromas of red and black fruit, tobacco, and subtle earthy notes, with a supple, well-balanced palate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe result is a classic, age-worthy Haut-Médoc from a historic estate now firmly on the rise under organic stewardship.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"David's Wine Cellar","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42633744875602,"sku":"87-1-2020","price":35.15,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/davidswinecellar.com\/products\/red-merlot-cabernet-bordeaux","provider":"David's Wine Cellar","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
