Héritage de Chasse-Spleen Haut-Médoc AOC

Héritage de Chasse-Spleen Haut-Médoc AOC

The Héritage de Chasse-Spleen Haut-Médoc is the second wine of the renowned Château Chasse-Spleen.

At first known as Ermitage de Chasse Spleen, this wine had to be given a new name in 2000 because of homonymy reasons. After a birth under the best auspices while inheriting all the care brought to its magnificent senior, this new name seemed very much appropriate.

It is crafted from younger vines and specific parcels within the Haut-Médoc appellation, offering a more accessible version of the estate’s signature style.
