Haut-Médoc Château Magnol by Barton & Guestier is produced near the city of Bordeaux, on the left bank of the Gironde estuary, France. A land of 31 hectares with low yields, cared for by hand, with careful selection and minimal interference in the natural ripening of the grapes. The wine is aged for 12 months in oak barrels, 30% of which are new. Winner of several international awards, it presents a very expressive, rich and complex bouquet with a solid core of black fruits (blackcurrant, black cherry), spices and wild sage and a minty tone. When tasted it is harmonious, well balanced and full-bodied, with fine and elegant tannins and a rich and savory aftertaste with fruity and spicy flavors of vanilla and liquorice.

It was in 1725 that the Irishman Thomas Barton settled in Bordeaux to start his company, which today is the oldest winery in the city still in business... His nephew Hugh collaborated with the Frenchman Daniel Guestier and in 1802 their partnership it became official. From the Chartrons area, in the center of Bordeaux, barrels and bottles were loaded aboard ships that sailed across the Garonne river to numerous countries, starting from Ireland, England, Holland and the United States and currently reaching over 130 countries.
