ETA SEPTEMBER

A young gentleman named Gressier got interested in a pretty hill of Graves in 1720, that had at its top a locality called Grand Poujeaux and where he founded his estate. One century later, the exploitation gets divided and becomes Castaing Grand Poujeaux. To prevent any association between the two neighbors, the castle is renamed Chasse-Spleen to pay tribute to Lord Byron.  It comes from a great terroir located in one of the smallest appellations of Médoc. Château Chasse-Spleen presents a well-balanced wine, dense and ample, composed for the major part of Cabernet Sauvignon, with Merlot and Petit Verdot. 1986 offers a silky and structured wine, with prunes and spicy and smoked wood.
