A full-bodied Médoc from the warm 2022 vintage

Château Les Grands Chênes 2022 is a red Bordeaux from the Médoc. This vintage has its own distinct profile, shaped by the conditions of the harvest and the estate’s decisions. When comparing different vintages from the same region, one discovers just how much the character can change.

Origin and Vineyard

Château Les Grands Chênes is located in the Médoc and is affiliated with winemaker Bernard Magrez. The wine is part of the Bordeaux tradition on the left bank, where the combination of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot can produce a full-bodied red wine.

The Character of 2022

The year 2022 brought plenty of sunshine and dry conditions to the Médoc. Château Les Grands Chênes, part of the Bernard Magrez estate, displays a concentrated style with ripe fruit and a firm yet refined structure.

Aromas and Development

Blackcurrant, black cherry, plum, cocoa, and cedarwood combine to create a rich bouquet. The tannins support the fruit and allow room for further development.

On the left bank, the combination of Cabernet-driven structure and fruit takes center stage. The influence of the vintage is significant here. A warm summer can enhance ripeness and concentration, while a cooler season places greater emphasis on freshness and precision. With bottle aging, earthy notes, tobacco, and cedar wood can gradually come more to the fore. The condition of the individual bottle remains a determining factor in this process.

Saving, Opening, and Combining

This wine pairs well with roast beef, lamb, or a dish with mushrooms. Don’t serve it too warm, and allow the aromas to develop in the glass. Taste it first before deciding whether it needs to breathe for a while.

Store the bottle in a dark, cool place at a stable temperature. A mature Bordeaux may develop sediment. If so, stand the bottle upright beforehand and pour carefully. A tasting note is a guideline: the actual experience depends on the age of the wine, the cork, and how it is served.
