92 Points - International Wine Report (2018)
"The 2018 Cuvee d'Eyssan offers inviting aromas of cherries and plums are woven together with cedar, spices and hints of dried tobacco. Medium-bodied with a mineral-laced core which expands through the finish. This has a short-term drinking window, but it should continue to drink well over the next decade."
About the Producer
Château d’Esteau, located in Saint-Sauveur, was acquired by the Musso family in 2016, and the estate has since transitioned to producing organic wines. Beyond being organic, their wines hold an HVE Level 3 certification, a testament to their environmentally friendly farming practices, as well as their commitment to respecting both employees and nature over the years.
Helene Musso is managing director for the Musso properties and comes from a long generation of winemakers and wine lovers. Her father Henri Musso purchased their first property in 1979 from the Rothschild family and the family produced their first wine in 1982. Helene is the youngest of 4 sisters, not only does she oversee the Haut Medoc family property but also the properties in Pauillac, Saint-Estephe, and Moulis. However, she doesn’t do this all on her own this an exemplary family operation in which every member collaborates including all four sisters, their husbands, and even cousins contribute. Apart from winemaking the family rears sheep, and horses, and grows a large amount of their own produce on their lands. Their resourcefulness also allows them to run a vine plantation business geared towards many properties on the left bank in need of bottling lines and filtration system services. The Musso family has been working with wine consultant Cedric Morceau for the last 25 years to continuously perfect and regulate the quality of their wines. In addition to consulting to the Musso family, today Cedric also chairs the external organisation that controls and assesses the quality and conformity of all Bordeaux AOC wine producers.
