The name ‘Château Poujeaux’ first appeared in 1806 but Terre de Poujeaux, situated in Moulis-en-Médoc, had existed since the Middle Ages. At that time it belonged to Latour Saint Mambert, now Château Latour, 1er Grand Cru Classé, Pauillac. During the 19th Century, the estate produced its first wines and became truly independent.
Previously divided up into three entities, it was only at the end of the 20th Century and thanks to the Theil family that Poujeaux’s structure and size were restored. The estate regained its historic form in 1956, unified with 100 hectares of which 70 hectares under vine. In 2008, the estate was acquired by the Cuvelier family, already owners of the famous Clos Fourtet, 1er Grand Cru Classé, Saint-Émilion.
Made of 48% Cabernet Sauvignon, 45% Merlot and the rest Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc, the deep garnet colored 2010 Poujeaux features notions of sweaty leather, baked plums and crème de cassis with hints of sautéed herbs and tobacco. Medium-bodied, the palate is a little lean and chewy, with an herbal lift on the finish - Reviewed by: Lisa Perrotti-Brown.
