Château Magdelaine - Saint-Emilion Grand Cru - 2009 | French Red Wine

Chateau Magdelaine dates back to at least the 18th century when it was owned by the Chatonnet family. By the early 1950s, Magdelaine had fallen into a state of neglect in the wine-making facilities and their Saint Emilion vineyards. At that point, the estate was put up for sale. It was acquired in 1952 by Ets Jean-Pierre Moueix who replanted the vineyards and modernized the winemaking.

Chateau Magdelaine is an old-school style, traditionally made Bordeaux wine is located just outside of the village St. Emilion. Chateau Magdelaine has some very good neighbors. The property is situated close to Chateau Ausone, Chateau Belair-Monange, and Chateau Canon at the break of the limestone plateau.
