Château Haut-Bergey 2024

A full-bodied and well-balanced Pessac-Léognan wine

The estate
Initially developed by Jean-François de Cresse in the 18th century, the Château Haut-Bergey opened a new chapter in its history in 1991 under Sylviane Garcin-Cathiard. Her son, Paul Garcin, currently manages the estate with an artistic and biodynamic approach. The region’s typical gravel soils encourage structured wines, distinguishing this historic property.

The vineyard
The Château Haut-Bergey vineyard in Pessac-Léognan covers 42 hectares of production. It sits on a sandy-gravel soil with a clay subsoil, typical of the appellation.

Vinification and aging
Harvesting is done by hand with successive sorting. Vinification is carried out without additives, with gentle extraction in stainless steel cone-shaped tanks. Aging lasts 14 months and takes place in various containers: 3000 L foudres, 700 L amphorae, 1800 L concrete eggs, and stainless steel tanks.

Blend
The Château Haut-Bergey 2024 is the result of a blend of 51% Cabernet Sauvignon, 38% Merlot, 8% Cabernet Franc, and 3% Petit Verdot.
