Description
With roots tracing back to Hugh Barton, an Irishman who became one of Bordeaux’s most legendary wine merchants, Barton & Guestier is one of the oldest and most prestigious names in Bordeaux. The family’s deep Irish connection continues today, with their wines being proudly showcased at The K Club, Ireland’s ultimate luxury resort and a haven for wine lovers.
Château Magnol, acquired by Barton & Guestier in 1969, has been meticulously restored to Cru Bourgeois status, with its vines thriving in the region’s gravel-rich terroir. This wine is a true Bordeaux classic, blending tradition, heritage, and exceptional craftsmanship into every glass. Rich, ripe, and elegant, this Haut-Médoc is all about luxurious fruit and velvety tannins. Expect luscious black cherries, ripe raspberries, and a hint of cassis, layered with delicate hints of vanilla, spice, and cedar from perfectly judged oak ageing. The palate is supple yet structured, with beautifully integrated tannins giving it that signature Bordeaux finesse.
