Château Daugay produces wines from Saint-Émilion Grand Cru, the prestigious heart of Bordeaux's Right Bank. The estate works with the classic grapes of the region: Merlot as its foundation, supported by Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, and Malbec. Le Piaf Saint-Émilion, a Merlot-based wine, represents the winery's core expression. Pavillon Daugay Saint-Émilion Grand Cru, a structured blend of four varieties, showcases the complexity that defines the appellation's finest offerings. Both wines have been assessed by major critics including Decanter, Wine Enthusiast, Falstaff, and Wine Advocate. Saint-Émilion Grand Cru demands precision in the vineyard and cellar—the terroir here favors wines with depth and aging potential, qualities evident in the winery's portfolio.
