Wine Facts

Winemaker Notes
The Bordeaux Red Appellation encompasses the whole of Maison Bouey’s vineyard, a very large geographical area with a great diversity of soils and terroirs where the following varieties are grown: Cabernet Sauvignon; Cabernet Franc; Carmenere; Merlot; and Petite Verdot. The oceanic climate preserves the vines in winter with mild temperatures, while average rainfall is spread throughout the year.

2019 brought together the best conditions in the region for an exceptional, high-quality vintage. The harvest was conducted mechanically, followed by traditional fermentation and winemaking. The wine then matures in French Oak vats in order to preserve, as much as possible, the fresh and fruity aromas and taste.

Interesting Fact
The number 58 is a nod to 1958, the year in which Roger Bouey founded Maison Bouey. This marked a turning point for the Bouey Family. This highly symbolic wine could not be made anywhere but in the magnificent vineyards of Bordeaux, where the family first planted its vines, and where they have thrived.

Serving Hints
Pairs well with sharp cheeses, as well as red meats and grilled vegetables.
