Chateau Preuillac

$37.00750ml

A classic Medoc is the perfect partner to roasted, broiled or braised fare.

When the wallet allows, go for a rack of lamb.

When it doesn't, a broiled sirloin and wild mushrooms

or a savory beef stew will do.

Classified Cru Bourgeois in 1932, but wildly uneven until purchased and gut renovated by the Mau and Dirkzwager families (Chateau Brown) in 1998, historic Chateau Preuillac, with Jean-Christophe Mau at the helm and Nathalie Billard in the cellar, is decidedly back on track. Their Merlot-heavy Medoc is densely packed, age-worthy, yet approachable now and a must try.
