Guy Meslin, descendant of a long line of winegrowers in St-Émilion, works with energy and passion to perpetuate the tradition. He created a second wine called Lady Laroze in 2010, a year that marked 400 years of family history. This cuvée pays tribute to the women who have enabled the estate to become a sure bet on the Right Bank. A Gem ranks among our best sellers every year. Accessible, this 2020 vintage will seduce you with its value for money!

Rated estate (2022 guide) 3 stars (High-quality production, serving as a benchmark in its sector)

About the estate:

Located at the foot of the hillside south of the village, the 27-hectare vineyard is planted on a single plot of land with ancient sandy soil and deep clay subsoil. Cultivated without chemical fertilizers or weedkillers, and now advised by Hubert de Boüard, the estate has retained its unforced, natural style, but it still lacks a little body and complexity overall to compete with the very best.

Rated estate (2022 guide) Award-winning wines (This producer's wines are regularly recognized by the guide)

About the estate:

Heir to a lineage of winemakers dating back to 1610, Georges Gurchy founded the estate in 1882. His descendants, the Meslin family, are still at the helm: Guy succeeded his father Georges in 1990 as head of the property. Classified since 1955, the estate has a large vineyard covering 27 hectares on clay-sand soils, west of Saint-Émilion.

About the estate:

Classified since 1955, the estate founded in 1882 by the family of Guy Meslin, the current owner, is recognized as one of the most reliable values in Saint-Émilion. It makes the most of its hillside terroir, which is largely sandy. While some recent vintages have a distinctive character, rich but lacking in nuance, the very latest ones show improvement. Full-bodied, appealing and subtle, they will express themselves early on in the pleasant style for which the terroir is predisposed.
