Nestled in the heart of the beautiful Saint-Émilion appellation lies the historic and esteemed Château Saint Georges Côte Pavie. With a history dating back to the 3rd century, this picturesque estate boasts a rich and intriguing past that is intertwined with the legacy of Bordeaux's most famous figures, including the renowned poet Ausone and the powerful Archbishop of Bordeaux.
The property's origins can be traced back to a large Gallo-Roman villa that once spanned over the southern slope of Saint-Émilion, including the land that now makes up Château Saint Georges Côte Pavie. Through the centuries, the property has passed through the hands of illustrious owners, including the Grailly family who were closely connected to the Plantagenets.
In 1873, Jules Charoulet, a wine merchant from the Ardennes, purchased the estate and began a new chapter in its history. With the rise of the French railway, Jules saw the opportunity to expand his wine business and relocated to Saint-Émilion. The rest, as they say, is history.
Today, Château Saint Georges Côte Pavie is managed by the Masson family, who continue to uphold the legacy and tradition of this exceptional estate. Under the guidance of renowned consultants Stéphane Derenoncourt and Hannah Fiegenschuh, the property has seen exciting developments, including the construction of a new vat room and the creation of a new cuvée, Clos 1873.
