Visit and tasting
Welcome to Château Yon-Figeac! Our visit begins with a presentation of the history of the property and the château, typical of the Saint-Emilion appellation. Then, we will delve into the Bordeaux and Saint-Emilion terroir to finish with a focus on our estate, our classified vines and our grape varieties. We will enter the sparkling vat room, renovated in 2021, to talk about our winemaking techniques, then in our barrel cellar where we will talk about the aging of our wines.
To finish, you will taste three wines from the property: our second wine Les Roches de Yon (Saint-Emilion Grand Cru) in two different vintages, and our first wine, Château Yon-Figeac (Saint-Emilion Grand Cru Classé).

Sobre o anfitrião
In the shade of its beautiful 19th century residence and its tower, this Château Grand Cru Classé of Saint Emilion perpetuates traditional know-how in each vintage, in search of great quality. Since its acquisition in 2005 by Mr. Alain Château, major technical and architectural work has been undertaken on this Château, for a complete renovation of the operating buildings. The wine is worked with delicacy and regularity of style, without ever distorting the notion of terroir so important in the eyes of Mr. Château and his team. From this constant work comes a fleshy and tasty Grand Cru Classé, with great aging potential, as well as a fruity and fresh second wine. Thanks to the use of Merlot and Cabernet Franc in its blends, Château Yon Figeac takes up the codes of classic Saint Emilion. The uniqueness of this Château is defined by the use of Petit Verdot, an atypical grape variety in Saint-Emilion which gives a nice finish as well as a very interesting spicy touch. Upon entering the property, you will be greeted by a work by the artist Cécile Pitois, representing the duality formed by the sun and the rain in the accomplishment of a beautiful vintage, put in parallel with the duality of men and women.
