Château Haut Maginet

Haute Valeur environnementale

BORDEAUX AOC – FRANCE

Located in the heart of the village of Soussac, on some of Gironde’s highest hillsides, Château Haut-Maginet has been in the Jolivet family for 4 generations.

Meticulous work and responsible farming have made it possible to keep on respecting traditions and protecting the environment, by means of grassing, organic soil enriching, green harvesting, and so on.

The wine shows a beautiful ruby-purple color, a bouquet of red fruits and acacia, with a slight mentholated touch and nice roundness on the palate.
