Château des Laurets
Château des Laurets sits in Puisseguin-Saint-Émilion, the northernmost appellation of the Libournais plateau in Bordeaux. The vineyard's Merlot-based wines reflect the region's clay and limestone terroir, which favors the grape's ripe, structured expression. Les Laurets Puisseguin-Saint-Émilion, the estate's flagship, centers on Merlot and has drawn assessment from Decanter, Wine Spectator, Wine Enthusiast, and Wine Advocate. The Baron Sélection Parcellaire, also Merlot-driven, offers a second expression of the same varietal focus. A traditional Puisseguin-Saint-Émilion blend of Merlot and Cabernet Franc rounds the portfolio. The wines sit at the intersection of Right Bank Bordeaux tradition and the specific mineral character of Puisseguin's cooler microclimate.
