Nestling on the Right Bank of the Dordogne, the medieval city of Saint-Émilion is as well known for its beautiful old stones as for the wine from its surrounding vineyards. To be given the title ‘Grand Cru’, the wines of the Saint-Émilion appellation must follow a very demanding series of guidelines, tested by a second tasting before bottling. This wine is therefore exceptional in its own right, but what makes it extra special is that this Grand Vin wine by Maison Ginestet is made from grapes sourced from a Grand Cru Classé estate. Their anonymity is your gain; if you purchased the wine under the estate label, you’d be paying twice this price.
