Chateau Mazeyres

Château Mazeyres is a Bordeaux wine from the appellation Pomerol. The winery is located on the Right Bank of the Bordeaux wine region, in the commune of Pomerol in the department Gironde. As all wine produced in this appellation, Château Mazeyres is unclassified but the estate is estimated among the great growths of the region.

Château Mazeyres is located on a historic site, in a wooded park by the ruins of a Gallo-Roman villa destroyed in the 4th century. Early viticulture is demonstrated by the chai which was once a 16th century convent, and the château constructed in the 19th century, during a period when the estate was one of the largest in Pomerol.

In 1988 Chateau Mazeyres was purchased by Caisse de Retraite de la Société Générale, and since 1992 has been managed by Alain Moueix, who also runs Château Fonroque.

The vineyard area extends 22 hectares with the grape varieties of 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc. Of the Grand vin Château Mazeyres there is an annual production of 7,000 cases, and of the second wine, Le Seuil de Mazeyres, there is produced 1,600 cases.
