In addition of being a great wine, Chateau Magnol is also the company head quarters, a guesthouse and a wine school: the B&G Food & Wine Academy.
Château Magnol is an elegant and fruity Cru Bourgeois wine, from the Haut-Médoc appellation. The property counts 30 (75 acres) hectares and is located close to Bordeaux on the left bank of the Gironde river, where it benefits of a micro-climate thanks to its proximity to the Atlantic ocean and the estuary. The soil consists of gravel and sand and the plantation proportions stand to 46% Cabernet Sauvignon, 39% Merlot, 12% Cabernet Franc and 3% Petit Verdot. The average age of the vines is 22 years. The wine is made according sustainable farming rules and Chateau Magnol was certified "High Environmental Value" - level 3. No sulphites are used during the vinifications. The wine is aged in 350-ltr oak barrels for a smooth exchange between oak and wine, during 12 months.
