Chateau De Villegeorge 2006

The Chateau Villegeorge wines were highly sough after as early on as the 18th century, to the extent that they fetched prices equal to those of wines that would be classified as 3rd growths in 1855. In 1880 the domain was bought by the Clauzel family who turned it into a model vineyard. When a group of Bordeaux wine merchants established the Crus Bourgeois classification in 1932 only six were awarded the coveted title of Crus Exceptionnel, among them Chateau de Villegeorge. Its classification was re-confirmed in 1966.
