1937 Château Petit-Village (Beyerman) - Pomerol - 1 Bottle (0.75L)

Château Petit Village 1937
From my personal cellar, very well preserved.
The 1937 vintage was a good year for wines, with some excellent results.

In 1937, Château Petit Village belonged to the Ginestet family of Bordeaux wine merchants, who also owned prestigious properties such as Château Margaux and Château Cos d'Estournel.
The 1937 vintage: 1937 was considered a good year for Bordeaux, producing rich and complex wines, thanks to a hot summer that allowed for a high-quality harvest. However, the estate, like many others, experienced a period of inconsistency, alternating between exceptional vintages and more modest ones.
Wine Merchant/Bottler: H.O. Beyerman was a reputable wine merchant, probably based in the Netherlands or Belgium. In the 1930s, it was common for wine to be sold in bulk by châteaux (like the Ginestet family here) to merchants, who would then bottle it under their own label or add their name as distributor or bottler.
The presence of this second label generally confirms the provenance and distribution history of the specific bottle you own. It doesn't call into question the authenticity of the wine itself (which does indeed come from Château Petit Village), but it adds a layer of information about its commercial journey after leaving the estate.
This label is a valuable indicator of the wine's traceability and distribution network at the time.
