description
Cabernet, Merlot Blend. Over the years, we have had the good fortune to work with some of the best (and, unfortunately, some of the last) small-scale grower-producers in Bordeaux. Our newest addition to this cadre of high caliber growers is Chateau Auney l’Hermitage, representing the region of Graves.

Known as Chateau Le Chec until 2012, when its long-time owners changed the name to Auney l’Hermitage, the estate is run by Sylvie and Christien Auney. They produce two cuvées each of red and white wine, favoring Merlot and Semillon in their respective blends. Graves Blanc and Graves Rouge are the core wines of Auney l’Hermitage, and make up the bulk of its production, while the best parcels are dedicated to their higher-end red and white “Cuvée Cana” bottlings.

Elevage runs 15 months in a mix of new and old “pieces”, and this is the most important wine of the estate at an average production of 18,000 bottles
