Pioneers of wine tourism, they were among the very first to open their doors to visitors. Julien and Nathalie are now at the helm, each bringing their own experience and their new dynamic approach. The family naturally continues to work together, choosing integrated agricultural practices that reflect their high environmental values. The ‘Vignobles Meyre’, a family company located in the heart of the Médoc, near Bordeaux, is made up of three châteaux - Chateau Cap Leon Veyrin, Chateau Julien and Chateau Bibian. When selling their wines, you can be sure of top quality products from world-renowned appellations. For six generations now, the family has striven to produce excellent wines, ensuring the satisfaction of even the most demanding connoisseurs.

Château Cap Léon Veyrin has been family-owned since 1810 when the Château Cap Léon and the Veyrin estates were joined. The word ‘Cap’ originally meant ‘head’. The vineyard of Cap Veyrin actually sits on the higher land of Listrac Médoc, and thus boasts ideal natural drainage and sun exposure. '
Vistalba Corte B
Vistalba Corte B is a Bordeaux-inspired red blend from one of Mendoza's most prestigious estates, founded by Carlos Pulenta in Lujan de Cuyo. A wine of real depth, structure and elegance, it showcases the very best of high-altitude Mendoza viticulture through careful blending and traditional winemaking. Why You'll Love It Carlos Pulenta established Vistalba with a clear vision: to craft wines that express the character of estate-grown fruit from Mendoza's most historic premium districts. The Corte series represents that philosophy at its finest, assembling Bordeaux-inspired blends that highlight the terroir, structure and elegance that Lujan de Cuyo does so well. Alluvial soils and significant diurnal temperature variation allow the grapes to ripen fully while retaining freshness and precision. Vineyard and Production Sourced from estate vineyards in Vistalba, Lujan de Cuyo, one of Mendoza's most celebrated high-altitude districts. Old-vine plantings contribute depth and concentration, while the wine is aged in French oak barrels to develop complexity, texture and aromatic refinement while preserving fruit purity. Tasting Notes Deep, vibrant colour with a generous aromatic profile of black cherries, plums, cassis and violet. Subtle layers of cocoa, tobacco leaf, cedar and baking spice from refined oak ageing. Full-bodied yet smooth on the palate, with ripe tannins, concentrated dark fruit and excellent mid-palate depth. A thread of freshness lifts the wine to a long, persistent finish with savoury notes and mineral tension. Perfect Pairings A natural partner for roast lamb, beef fillet and slow-braised red meats. Also excellent with aged hard cheeses, venison and hearty stews. Grape Variety Malbec and Cabernet Sauvignon
