Château Pontey AOP Médoc Cru Bourgeois Rouge

Château Pontey : To reach the vineyards from the Château, you must

A Gascon spin was put on the name of the vintage, changing it from Pontet to Pontey. From 1932 to 2003, this estate was included in the select group of wines classified as Cru Bourgeois Supérieur, until new regulations eliminated this designation.
