Saint-Emilion ranking – Grands Crus classés

The Saint-Emilion wine classification is relatively recent since its first edition dates from 1955.

It was established at the request of the Saint-Emilion wine-producing union.

This classification applies only to Châteaux belonging to the Saint-Emilion Grand Cru appellation (yield limited to 40 hl / ha and a minimum of 12 months).

Unlike the 1855 ranking of Medoc which remains unchanged, the Saint-Emilion ranking is subject to revision every 10 years.
