Who makes it

Four generations have kept Château Puy-Razac in family ownership. The estate has held Saint-Émilion Grand Cru classification since 1945. Its red wines use Merlot and Cabernet Franc, with the house describing them through rich, deep flavours and refined tannins. Sustainable viticulture guides the farming.

Where it grows

At the foot of the Pavie hillside, south of the Saint-Émilion village, Château Puy-Razac farms a single contiguous plot of 7 hectares. The ground is sandy clay. Clay can hold water, while sand leaves room for drainage, combining moisture retention with air around the roots.

What they make

Château Puy-Razac 2018 is a red Saint-Émilion wine made from Merlot and Cabernet Franc. It has rich, deep flavours and refined tannins, the defining sensory description attached to the estate's wines.

Note. The source set gives conflicting proportions for Merlot and Cabernet Franc, so the page keeps the blend qualitative.
