Château
In 1996, the De Schepper family purchased Château La Croizille, a five-hectare vineyard in the heart of the legendary Saint-Émilion wine region, between Château Tour Baladoz and Château Tertre Roteboeuf. Ideally situated on the slopes of the clay-limestone plateau of Saint-Émilion, the vines are nestled in a natural basin between 30 and 70 metres above sea level in the village of Saint-Laurent-des-Combes.
The family immediately decided to transform it into an exceptional vineyard by combining this outstanding terroir with traditional know-how and advanced technology. As a result, a new, modern winery was inaugurated in April 2013, featuring a reception room offering panoramic views over the vineyard.

Our story
From an unknown estate to an exceptional vineyard, out of love and respect for nature and our ancestors.
The soil
The low yields of the oldest vines, combined with rigorous selection, make it possible to achieve a unique character that is unrivalled in Saint-Émilion.
The winemaking process
The wine is given sixteen to twenty months to develop into a high-quality wine, partly thanks to the use of equipment of the highest quality.
