Acquired in 2007, Château Ambe Tour Pourret – AOC Saint-Émilion Grand Cru, is located at the entrance of the medieval town of Saint-Émilion. Our ambition is to make a very high quality wine thanks to its “ancient sand on clay” soil. A typical soil that makes it possible to produce wines with very fine tannins and a velvety mouth ! To further enhance and preserve the terroir, we have chosen the organic path. Our first labelled vintage will be the 2015 vintage.
