Chateau Mazerat takes its name from the Mazerat sector in St. Emilion where the vines are located. Owned by Jonathan Maltus, and located not too far from Chateau Angelus, this property is also the source used for the Bordeaux wine produced at Chateau Le Dome. Jonathan Maltus made his first purchase in the Mazerat sector in 1996. He obtained the rest of the vineyard which is used for the production of Vieux Chateau Mazerat in 2008. The 5 hectare Saint Emilion vineyard of Vieux Chateau Mazerat is planted to 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc. You can divide the vineyard into two separate terroirs. In the larger section, which is where the majority of the vineyard is located, the terroir is clay over limestone soil. Here, you also find some very impressive old vines which date all the way back to 1947. The smaller second of their vineyards is located just between Chateau Angelus and the now famous vineyard of Jonathan Maltus used to produce Le Dome. That terroir is sand and Crasse de Fer soils. The vineyard is planted to a vine density of 5,795 vines per hectare. Buy Chateau Mazerat wines at VINO&VINO wine store and enjoy free delivery in Yerevan.
