Château Bibian Cru Bourgeois Haut Médoc AOC

Château Bibian is a historic (and one of the oldest) property in Listrac-Médoc, located between the more famous communes of Margaux and Saint-Julien.

The château, purchased by the Meyre family in 1999 and a Cru Bourgeois Supérieur classified (starting with the 2018 vintage), is today run by the 6th generation, where Nathalie and Julien Meyre, in consultation with the famous wine consultant (Michel Rolland), carry on the family traditions and produce this classic Bordeaux wine.

Description

TECHNICAL DATA
Alcohol 14%

APPEARANCE
A deep ink-like garnet color.

NOSE
The nose is intricate and oaky, showing lifted blackcurrant, candied plum, chocolate and vanilla notes. With the ageing, it has developed sophisticated earthy layers of leather, smoke, truffle, and forest floor.

PALATE
Generous and concentrated on the palate. It has a smooth texture balanced by structural chocolate-like tannins and a crisp, vibrant acidity that provides plenty of vigor and freshness.

AGEING
In oak barrels for 12 months (40% new).

PAIRING
It pairs beautifully with lean game meats, roasted lamb chops, or rich duck breast.
