Saint Émilion Grand Cru Château Haut Mazerat 1991
The 1991 Saint Émilion Grand Cru from Château Haut Mazerat is a French red wine produced by G.A.E.C. Gouteyron. The wine is bottled directly at the estate, which bears the traditional motto "In Vino Veritas" on its label.
Château Haut Mazerat is located in Saint Émilion, one of the most prominent wine areas on the Right Bank of Bordeaux, situated just east of the city itself. The area is renowned for its historic medieval town and its own distinct classification system. The local terroir features a diverse composition of soils, ranging from limestone plateaus and clay to sand and gravel, which traditionally provides an ideal foundation for the Right Bank's dominant grapes, Merlot and Cabernet Franc. The broader Bordeaux region, situated by the Atlantic Ocean, has a rich history of wine exportation dating back to the Middle Ages. The conditions for the 1991 vintage in this area were challenging, marked by frost and low quality.
