Château Magdelaine

Château Magdelaine was a historic winery in the Saint-Émilion appellation in the Bordeaux region, known for its premium red wines. Located on the renowned limestone plateau of Saint-Émilion, the estate boasted a rich history dating back to the 18th century.

Château Magdelaine's vineyards were predominantly planted with Merlot, supplemented by smaller portions of Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon. This location and the plateau's soil composition contributed to the particular elegance and complexity of Château Magdelaine's wines.

The wines were distinguished by their ability to achieve a harmonious balance between fruitiness, tannins, and acidity. They were known for their aromas of dark fruits, spices, and a subtle mineral note typical of the Saint-Émilion terroir.

Château Magdelaine was long considered one of the finest wineries in Saint-Émilion and enjoyed an excellent reputation worldwide. In 2012, the estate was acquired by Château Bélair-Monange, a neighboring winery in Saint-Émilion. Since this acquisition, the vineyards of Château Magdelaine have been cultivated jointly with Château Bélair-Monange, and the wines are produced under the name Château Bélair-Monange.

Although the name Château Magdelaine no longer exists as an independent winery, its history and heritage remain significant in the world of Bordeaux wine. Château Magdelaine's wines remain highly prized among collectors and symbolize an era of excellent viticulture in Saint-Émilion.
