The adventure of Château Faugères’ vineyards starts here in the 18th century, with the construction of the first wine cellars in 1783.
Planted on a limestone-clay hillside adjoining the Saint-Émilion hillsides and the Faugères and Péby Faugères vineyards, Château Cap de Faugères’s land is rubbing shoulders with the greatest. The vines are in the village of Sainte-Colombe and fall under the Castillon-Côtes de Bordeaux appellation. Like the other two vineyards, Cap de Faugères wines are made using sustainable viticulture with attentive maturation.
The wine is made by the same team and to the same standards in a winery designed by the architects Jean de Gastines and Patrick Dillon. Behind these monumental doors, its 30 stainless steel vats produce wines which can be enjoyed not long after bottling.
