Château Laniote

Producer description of "Château Laniote"

The vineyard is located in the north-west of the municipality of Saint-Émilion (Bordeaux) in the area of the same name. The estate is said to be the site of the cave or hermitage where Saint Émilion (Aemilianus) lived in the 7th century, giving the town and area its name. The estate was founded in 1816 by wine merchant Pierre Lacoste. It has been run by the seventh generation of the family, Arnaud de la Filolie, since 1988. The estate is classified as a Grand Cru Classé, which was last confirmed in 2012. The vineyards cover 5 hectares of vines with Merlot (80%), Cabernet Sauvignon (15%) and Cabernet Franc (5%). The long-lasting red wine is aged for 12 to 15 months in 50% new barriques. The second wine is called "Chapelle de Laniote".

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.
