The estate has been in the Guillemet family since 1906 and is run by technical director Lucien Guillemet. Guillemet also oversees production at sister estate and neighboring third growth, Château Boyd-Cantenac which has been in the family since 1932. Pouget and Boyd-Cantenac share the same address – and winemaking facilities – in southern Margaux, a stone's from the likes of Château Kirwan to the north and Château Brane-Cantenac to the west. Pouget's history (in terms of written record) dates back to the mid-18th Century when the estate was inherited by a certain François-Antoine Pouget, who gave the estate its name. It remained in the extended Pouget family until the French Revolution when the estate was confiscated by the state. François-Antoine Pouget is also the inspiration of the château's second wine, Antoine Pouget. Previously, the second wine was called La Tour Massac. The estate was classed as a Fourth Growth in the 1855 Classification of the Médoc and Graves. It was acquired by Pierre Cuillemet in 1906 and has remained in the family since then. The estate's technical director Lucien Guillemet works outside the grand cru umbrella organisation, the Union des Grands Crus de Bordeaux and, as such, the wines are rarely in the limelight. Reports also indicate that Guillemet prefers to sell the wine domestically and to established clients in the Benelux countries. Stylistically, the Grand Vin has a reputation for being something of an under-performer with an often quite backward tannin profile when young. Despite the wines of the estate being dubbed \"usually disappointing\" by US wine critic Robert Parker in 2012, the wines, while not receiving rave reviews, are undergoing something of a re-appraisal in recent years. Along with sister estate, Boyd-Cantenac, the wines continue to fly under the radar compared to their stablemates in the grands crus.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e","published_at":"2024-03-21T11:01:38-04:00","created_at":"2024-03-19T17:20:11-04:00","vendor":"CaskCartel.com","type":"Wine","tags":["Country_France","Other_Wine","Producer_Château Pouget","Region_Bordeaux","RK180324","Source_VendorEmail0324","Type_Red Wine","Varietal_Bordeaux Blend Red"],"price":46100,"price_min":46100,"price_max":46100,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":44518182682762,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":null,"requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"1997 | Château Pouget | Margaux","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":46100,"weight":12247,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":null,"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/43_254b0209-03fa-43e9-b019-aa77eedb516d.png?v=1710883276"],"featured_image":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/43_254b0209-03fa-43e9-b019-aa77eedb516d.png?v=1710883276","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"1997 | Château Pouget | Margaux at CaskCartel.com","id":26519497539722,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.352,"height":344,"width":121,"src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/43_254b0209-03fa-43e9-b019-aa77eedb516d.png?v=1710883276"},"aspect_ratio":0.352,"height":344,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/43_254b0209-03fa-43e9-b019-aa77eedb516d.png?v=1710883276","width":121}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eRed Wine: 1997 | Château Pouget | Margaux\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe wine reveals a deep, complex color with a captivating bouquet of dark fruits and spices, enhanced by the nuances acquired through barrel and bottle aging.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrder from the Largest \u0026amp; Most Trusted Premium Spirits Marketplace! \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatured in\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eROLLING STONE\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMEN'S JOURNAL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUS WEEKLY\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNOTICE:\u003c\/strong\u003e Many other small liquor store sites may end up cancelling your order due to the high demand, unavailability or inaccurate inventory counts.  We have partnerships consisting of a large network of licensed retailers from within the United States, Europe and across the world ensuring orders are fulfilled.   \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eProducer:\u003c\/b\u003e Château Pouget\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eVintage\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1997\u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 750ml\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12%\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVarietal:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Bordeaux Blend Red \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCountry\/Region:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e France, Bordeaux\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c!-- split --\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDetailed Description\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe wine reveals a deep, complex color with a captivating bouquet of dark fruits and spices, enhanced by the nuances acquired through barrel and bottle aging.
