Château Croizet-Bages

The Château Croizet-Bages will be named Fifth Grand Cru Classé during the famous 1855 classification for the Paris Universal Exhibition.

Since 1942, it has belonged to the Quié family, and today it is Anne-Françoise and Jean-Philippe Quié who govern it with a family passion that has remained intact.

The Château Croizet-Bages looks after a 26-hectare vineyard planted on deep gravel and gravelly sand soils, including 62% Cabernet Sauvignon, 28% Merlot, 6% Cabernet Franc and 4% Petit Verdot. The wines are aged for 18 months, including 12 to 14 months in French oak barrels, with the proportion of new wood ranging from 50 to 55%.

The estate produces a Second wine, Alias de Croizet-Bages.

The Château Croizet-Bages offers generous, fleshy and concentrated wines, where the purity of fruit blends harmoniously with tannins and spices, the hallmark of great Pauillac wines.
