The winery is located near Saint-Émilion(Bordeaux) in the area of the same name. It was founded in 1750 by Pierre Beylot. Since 1930, it has been owned by the Janoueix family, who also run other wine estates and a wine trade. The estate is classified as a Grand Cru Classé, which was last confirmed in 2012. The vineyards cover 21 hectares of vines, most of which are around 50 years old. They are planted with the Merlot (70%) and Cabernet Franc (30%) varieties. The long-lasting red wine is matured for 12 months in barriques, 30% of which are new. The second wine is called "Chateau Vieux Sarpe".

The glossary is a monumental achievement and one of the most important contributions to wine knowledge. Of all the encyclopaedias I use on the subject of wine, it is by far the most important. That was the case ten years ago and it hasn't changed since.
