Château Makievka is located in Saint Emilion on the plain a few minutes drive from the medieval city. It is a powerful and elegant wine whose eloquence is best expressed after 2 or 3 years...

Origins of the name This name, atypical in Bordeaux, comes from the family's background : the grandfather, whose picture appears on the label, was born in 1904 in Makievka, a city in the south of Russia. The name was given as a tribute to this grandfather, a valiant strapping fellow who settled his family in the wine business.

Fruits, wood and love... The Chateau Makievka is a smart wine with irreproachable technique which allows the soil to express itself. Green grapes harvested in a reasonable amount, gentle treatment... everything is done to get a healthy and mature grape, which we'll gently transform into this smart and powerful wine. Then, the wine is transferred to new barrels : French oak to give promptness and temper, American oak to give flexibility and voluptuousness. tasting : at room temperature but open the bottle in advance. conservation : it can be drunk from 2 to 20 years depending on the harvests. Don't hesitate to open a bottle from time to time. When you really like what you drink, do not hesitate to finish the remaining bottles!
