        Producer Information

        Château Les Grandes Murailles is a Saint-Emilion estate inextricably linked to the imposing remains ("murailles" means walls) of a medieval Dominican monastery on the western edge of Saint-Emilion town. The estate also covers production of Château Côte de Baleau, a Saint-Emilion Grand Cru Classé. The Château Les Grandes Murailles vineyard lies at the foot of the aforementioned remains, covering 1.5 hectares (3.7 acres) immediately west of Saint-Emilion, and just over the road from the highly regarded Clos Fourtet vineyard. The vineyard is planted solely to Merlot on typical Saint-Emilion plateau soils of clayey limestone. The resulting wine is 100 percent Merlot aged in predominantly new French oak barriques. Around 6,500 bottles are produced annually. The estate is a regular in the Saint-Emilion Grand Cru classification and has featured in every classification listing – bar the 1986 and 2022 edition – since the inaugural 1955 ratings. Sister estate Château Côte de Baleau lies just two kilometers (1.2 miles) northwest of Saint-Emilion town. The 18 hectares (37 acres) of vineyard on the property are planted mainly with Merlot, with 15 percent Cabernet Franc and five percent Cabernet Sauvignon. Soils here are similarly clay above limestone although the terroir here is not quite as prized as sites further south and to the west. Nonetheless, the estate was promoted into the ranks of the Grands Crus Classés in the Saint-Emilion classification of 2012. Only 15 hectares (37 acres) of the Côte de Baleau vineyard is classified Grand Cru. Until 2013, both estates, under the Grandes Murailles company, were run by former lawyer, Sophie Fourcade, who oversees Clos St Martin, also a Saint-Emilion Grand Cru classé estate. In 2013, the Cuvelier family, which runs Clos Fourtet (and the Bordeaux left-bank Château Poujeaux in Moulis-en-Médoc) bought a majority holding in both Château Les Grandes Murailles and Château Côte de Baleau. The Cuveliers also took a minority holding in Clos St Martin, which Fourcade still controls.
