Château Haut-Saint-Georges 2021: An Award-winning Bordeaux with Strength and Character

The crowning of Château Haut-Saint-Georges 2021 with two stars and a ‘coup de coeur’ in Le Guide Hachette des Vins is an impressive achievement that underlines the exceptional quality of this wine. Vinified on the 6-hectare Saint-Georges estate, owned by our Caves Saint-Christophe, this wine is characterised by its unique terroir and dedication to traditional winemaking techniques.

Le Guide Hachette des Vins is an internationally respected wine guide and an essential source of information for wine professionals and enthusiasts. A wine receiving two stars during blind reviews is considered excellent, and a ‘coup de coeur’ marks the wine as a personal favourite of the tasters.

A unique terroir for a unique wine

The soil structure of Saint-Georges-Saint-Émilion's unique terroir is similar to that of the prestigious Saint-Émilion, consisting of clay, limestone, gravel and iron. In turn, the loam in the soil gives the wine a more robust character, which is particularly appreciated by lovers of powerful Bordeaux wines. The vines, mainly Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc, grow on southern slopes and are on average 30 years old. The grapes are hand-picked and carefully selected.

A tasty addition to any wine cellar

The 2021 vintage of the almost inky Château Haut-Saint-Georges is characterised by a savoury combination of black ripe fruit, well-integrated tannins and a spicy wood touch. This makes it an excellent choice with rich meat dishes such as beef and game. The wine also pairs perfectly with dishes such as lamb or a tender steak.

With its award in Le Guide Hachette des Vins, Château Haut-Saint-Georges 2021 confirms its place as one of the top wines from the Saint-Georges-Saint-Émilion region. For lovers of powerful, complex Bordeaux wines, this vintage is a must-try and a valuable addition to any wine cellar.
