Vinum: Viel Tiefgang im Bouquet von Meyney; dunkle Frucht, florale Noten, mineralisch geprägt; satter Gaumen, reife Frucht, kraftvoll, präzis, voller Leben, die Tannine sind von sehr hoher Qualität; langanhaltend im Abgang, endet dunkelfruchtig. Ein hervorragender Meyney, der Kraft und Finesse vereint und grosse Reserven hat."

The Wine Cellar Insider: Black currants, smoke, tobacco, mint, flowers, and cassis create the aromatics. The palate completes the theme with its lush, creamy, vibrant, black currant, espresso, and licorice packed mid-palate, and fruity, energetic finish. Drink from 2029-2050."

Jeb Dunnuck: A serious, concentrated Saint-Estèphe, the 2025 Château Meyney reveals darker berries, graphite, chocolate, and hints of tobacco on the nose. It's rich and medium to full-bodied on the palate, with a nicely concentrated, layered mouthfeel, ripe tannins, and a great finish. It's clearly an outstanding wine."

Jane Anson: Lovely deep colour, impressive grip and lift, austere at this early stage, needs time to open, but well structured, a ton of life ahead of it, lean cassis and bilberry fruits, liquorice root, 43hl/ha yield, 3.75ph."

Decanter: Deep dark fruit notes on the nose, blackcurrants and cherries with wild flowers - excellent clarity and focus of aromas. Supple and soft, velvety with a lovely bounce to the expression - there’s layers of fruit and a salty, cola and liquorice, wet stone grip but all balanced and harmonious. Still a little tight and focused as to be expected but there’s real finesse here. You can see the gentle extractions. Chewy, friendly, fun, but still with fragrant and softly spiced fruit. Lots going on. 3.75pH."

Jancis Robinson: Fragrant and spicy, the tannins suave, mellow and precise. Lovely fruit and texture, the finish powdery and persistent."
