Located in the Saint Emilion Grand Crup A.O.C., Château Montlisse, along with Château Destieux and Château la Clémence, belongs to the “Vignobles Dauriac”. It was François Dauriac himself who noticed the south facing vines on this beautiful Bordeaux property. The estate comprises seven hectares of vines in a single block spread over a terroir made of clay-limestone, blue clay, sand, and red gravel soils. The temperate oceanic climate is ideal for growing Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Cabernet Franc grapes. The estate follows reasoned agriculture guidelines. The harvest is carried out manually, followed by a plot by plot vinification by the oenologist before the wines are blended and aged in the cellar.
