Vineyards & Vinification

Situated on the Saint Christophe des Bardes plateau and the plateau of Saint Etienne de Lisse. A portion of the Clos de la Cure vineyards share the same soil composition as Château Cheval Blanc—gravel and clay with iron-rich deposits and limestone bedrock—and they are densely planted at 6,600-9,000 vines per hectare.

Pruned guyot-simple; debudding; leaf-thinning and green harvest. Vinified in concrete tanks and aged for 12-15 months in French oak barrels.


The Winery

Domaines Bouyer encompasses a group of top estates totaling 18 hectares in St. Emilion and Pomerol, including Château Milon Grand Cru, Clos de la Cure Grand Cru, and Clos 56, now in the capable hands of Alexia and Pierre Bouyer.

The wine of Chateau Milon is developed from 13 hectares of plots located on gravelly and sandy-clay soils at the foot of the slopes in the municipalities of Saint-Christophe des Bardes and Saint-Émilion. It is believed that vines were planted on the plateau in the Middle Ages.

The Bouyer family farms ecologically with great respect for the Grand Cru terroir. For this commitment, the estate has earned the demanding Haute Valeur Environnementale certification, one of the first in Saint Emilion to do so.
