Nestled in the charming village of Béguey, in the heart of the coveted Premières Côtes de Bordeaux region, lies the exquisite Château Reynon. This wine estate has a rich history dating back to 1958 when it was acquired by Florence Dubourdieu and Jacques David. Today, it is managed by their talented sons Fabrice and Jean-Jacques, who have seamlessly blended tradition with modern techniques to produce exceptional wines.
At Château Reynon, sustainability is more than just a buzzword – it is a way of life. The vineyard work is carried out in accordance with sustainable viticulture practices, without the use of herbicides or pesticides. This ensures that the wines are not only of the highest quality, but also in harmony with the environment.
The red vineyard, spanning over 20 hectares, is a blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Petit Verdot. The terroir, with its deep gravel and clay-limestone soils, is perfectly suited for these grape varieties, resulting in wines that are rich, complex, and full of character. Each grape is hand-picked during the harvest and undergoes a careful 20 to 25 days of vatting at a controlled temperature. The aging process, lasting 12 months, takes place in oak barrels, with 30% being new.
A tasting of Château Reynon Rouge is a sensory experience like no other. Its deep color and aromas of liquorice, blackcurrant, and smoke tantalize the senses, while the velvety, fine, and powerful flavors leave a lasting impression. It's no surprise that this estate is now among the most renowned in the Cadillac Côtes de Bordeaux region.
Château Reynon is a testament to the dedication and passion of the Dubourdieu family, whose commitment to excellence has resulted in wines that truly capture the essence of the French terroir. With each sip, you can taste the legacy that has been passed do
