Château Poujeaux

In the Middle Ages, Château Poujeaux was a seigniory dependent on Latour Saint-Mambert, later to become Château Latour. In the 19th century, the Château Poujeaux estate produced its first Bordeaux wines, gaining true independence. Throughout the 20th century, the Theil family presided over the destiny and reputation of Château Poujeaux until Philippe Cuvelier and his son Matthieu, already owners of Château Clos Fourtet, took over in 2008. They breathed new life into the estate and brought numerous investments and a first-rate team to this Moulis-en-Médoc cru.

The Château Poujeaux vineyard extends in a single block over the gravelly hilltops of Grand-Poujeaux, northeast of Moulis. The grape varieties are mainly Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, supplemented by Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. The utmost care is taken in the harvesting, selection and sorting of the grapes, as well as in the vinification and aging of Château Poujeaux wines. Produced in the Moulis-en-Médoc appellation, Château Poujeaux wine is accompanied by a second wine from the same appellation, La Salle de Poujeaux, and a Haut-Médoc appellation wine, Haut de Poujeaux.
