The estate and the wine
The estate and the wine Located on the eastern side of the Saint-Émilion appellation, Château Mangot spans 37 hectares of meticulously tended vineyards, overseen by the Todeschini family. Anne-Marie, Jean-Guy, and their two sons practice sustainable viticulture, respecting both biodiversity and the estate’s limestone-rich terroir. Their dedication yields beautifully refined wines, crafted with precision and a deep sense of place.
Wine From the outstanding 2019 vintage, Château Mangot delivers a wine of remarkable depth and precision. The palate is lush and velvety, with ripe, juicy fruit flavors bursting with clarity and definition. Notes of dark berries and plums unfold seamlessly, wrapped in a silky, supple texture that enhances its immediate appeal. While its aging potential is undeniable, its polished tannins and impeccable balance make it equally enjoyable today.
