Château Monbousquet

Chateau Perse’s acquisition of Monbousquet in 1993 has led to great things for this estate. It is located 500 metres south of Saint-Emilion and dates back a long way. Up until the arrival of Gerard Perse, the estate had produced a very creditable wine which ranked middle of the range of Saint-Emilion’s fine wines. The vineyard area extends 32 hectares with the grape varieties of approximately 60% Merlot, 30% Cabernet Franc and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon. Of the Grand vin Monbousquet there is a typically an annual production of 8,300 cases.
