Médoc Wine
Geographically the Medoc is the entire peninsular north of the City of Bordeaux but the appellation of that name for red wines created in 1936 only refers to the 16 communes at the northern end. The area is sometimes called the Bas-Medoc or Lower-Medoc [though not on wine labels] There are no classed growths here although there are a number of Cru Bourgeois estates.
It did not always carry such prestige. Until the Dutch drained it in the mid-17th century, the Medoc was only a salt marsh.Wine making really got going at the begining of the 18th century. The wines tend to be made mostly from Cabernet Sauvignon.

Chateau Larrivaux 2016
Snoothrank:
This amazing 2016 Bordeaux vintage just keeps rolling along! The 2016 Larrivaux is pure Haut-Medoc; the scent of this wine is wonderful, with blackberry and cassis dominating. A pure wine with entry of tannic blackberry, this product is ready for drinking although it may last up to 5 years in the bottle. Buttery smooth. A fantastic buy. 91. Read More

Chateau de Pirouette 2016
Snoothrank:
This modestly priced Medoc presents garnet brick red in the glass, with a wonderful blackberry, coffee and smoke nose. Slightly acerbic and thus youthful, this wine is nevertheless smooth, balanced and elegant; the entry is dominated by blackberry, cassis, blueberry confit and smoke. Finish is medium long. A fine buy for a Medoc. Purchased i... Read More

Chateau Senejac 2010
Snoothrank:
The 2010 Senejac has matured nicely since it last passed my lips, and tastes ... Bourgeois provenance in Haut-Medoc (there is only one classified growth in this region). Anyway, this wine has some tannic punch to last another 3-5 years, but seems mature now; lots of blackberry (Cabernet influence), grainy cherry infused tobacco, great acid ba... Read More
