The estate
Located in Saint-Émilion, the Château Moulin Saint-Georges benefits from a privileged location, opposite the legendary Château Ausone and in close proximity to Château La Clotte. Since its acquisition in 1921, this discreet estate has been carefully cultivated by the Vauthier family. Not far away flows the Fongaban stream, an eternal witness to the passing of time and a symbol of the fleeting nature of human existence, in contrast with the permanence of the terroir. In the past, a mill belonging to the lordship of Saint-Georges stood precisely where the estate’s cellars and winery are now located.
The vineyard
The vineyard of Château Moulin Saint-Georges covers 7 hectares at the entrance to Saint-Émilion. The vines, averaging 25 years old, are planted on clay-limestone soils.
Vinification and aging
Hand harvesting and density sorting. Parcel vinification with gentle extractions. Fermentation in stainless steel vats to preserve the pure aromatic expression. Aged for 18 months in new barrels.
Blend
Merlot (80 %) and cabernet franc (20 %).
