Discovering the Château de Mauves

Discovering the Château de Mauves

The origins of Château de Mauves

 

In 1817, Captain Jean Mauve created the Château de Mauves property. His heirs, Georges and Henri Moreau, well-known wine merchants in Bordeaux, developed the property.

In fact, a bottle of Château de Mauves 1938 bears the words "1er cru de Graves". 
 

A guaranteed successor 

 

In 1965, the Bouche Bernard family, heirs to four generations of winegrowers, took over the six hectares of vineyards.  

 

Today, coming from five generations of winegrowers, Michel and Véronique BOUCHE manage the 28 hectares of vines in the prestigious Graves appellation, with passion and know-how. 

 

 

A mosaic of terroir

 

The vineyard is made up of 58% Cabernet Sauvignon, 2% Cabernet Franc and 40% Merlot. The vinification is long maceration in thermo-regulated vats, to extract the best potential from the grapes. 

Since 2018, the property has been awarded the High Environmental Value label.

The typical character of Château de Mauves is predominantly fruity with the expression of small red fruits (blackcurrant, blackberry). On the nose, the aromas of red fruits are very pronounced (blackcurrant, blackberry). The palate is very well balanced and structured, the tannins are smooth and harmonious. The wine is fruity with a very nice finish. 


Potential for cellaring for more than 10 years. 

 
From red meat to blanquette, it goes perfectly with all raw milk cheeses. Excellent with chocolate fondant.
