Grape: Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot
Vintage: 2015
Type: Red

This red wine comes from a historic estate in Haut-Médoc, combining cabernet sauvignon, merlot, cabernet franc, and petit verdot. The vineyards are managed under sustainable viticulture practices on gravelly soils that isolate heat and restrict vine yields. Vinified using traditional Bordeaux protocols with indigenous wild yeasts in neutral tanks, the components ferment with minimal intervention. Aged in French oak barrels to integrate its structure, this bottling delivers a classical regional identity.

It shows a deep ruby color with garnet reflections, opening with aromas of wild blackberry, dark plum, cedar shavings, and tobacco leaf. A medium-bodied frame balances concentrated dark fruit flavors with a firm, youthful tannin profile. Savory nuances of forest floor, graphite, and a light floral lift develop as the wine breathes. A clean thread of natural acidity runs through the center, keeping the fluid mouthfeel refreshed. It finishes long and dry, leaving a savory impression.

Château Aney is known for producing traditional, classic-style Cru Bourgeois red wines. The estate is situated in Cussac-Fort-Médoc, strategically positioned between the prestigious appellations of Saint-Julien and Margaux. Château Aney is known for its finely balanced, elegant, and cellar-worthy wines that were not overly oaked or extracted. The blend typically featured a high proportion of Cabernet Sauvignon, complemented by Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Petit Verdot.
