Château Chasse-Spleen

Château Chasse-Spleen was once part of a much larger Haut Medoc estate that sold their wine under the name of Château Grand-Poujeaux.

In 1822, their Bordeaux vineyards were divided as follows; half the property became Château Gressier-Grand-Poujeaux and the other half of the estate eventually became the foundation for what would become 3 different, Bordeaux estates, Château Maucaillou, Château Poujeaux-Theil and of course, Château Chasse-Spleen.

The large 80 hectare, Left Bank vineyard of Château Chasse-Spleen is planted to 73% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot and 7% Petit Verdot.

This shows a major change from what was planted in the mid 1990’s, as today, the Cabernet Sauvignon has been increased, and the Cabernet Franc has been completely removed.

 

The vines are on average 30 years of age. The terroir is gravel, with clay and chalk soil. However, that varies as they have parcels in several different vineyards spread among the various communes in the appellation.

The red wine of Chasse-Spleen is vinified in a combination of stainless steel tanks and wood vats. Malolactic fermentation takes place in vat.

The wine of Chasse-Spleen is aged in 40% new, French oak barrels for between 12 and 15 months before bottling.
