Producer: Château Capet-Guillier is a boutique estate located in the heart of Saint-Émilion. While not as widely known as some of its more famous neighbours, this hidden gem has been steadily gaining recognition for its high-quality wines. The château's vineyards benefit from a prime location on Saint-Émilion's limestone plateau, contributing to the wine's elegance and mineral complexity. Under the guidance of owner Bertrand Bourdil, the estate practices sustainable viticulture and employs modern winemaking techniques while respecting traditional methods. The 2018 vintage, widely regarded as exceptional in Bordeaux, showcases Capet-Guillier's ability to produce wines that beautifully express the terroir of Saint-Émilion, offering both power and finesse.
