About the estate:
Domaine de l'Aurage, located in Saint-Genès-de-Castillon in the Castillon-Côtes-de-Bordeaux appellation, has been owned by Louis and Caroline Mitjavile since 2007. Son of François Mitjavile, owner of the renowned Château Tertre Roteboeuf and Roc de Cambes, Louis chose this terroir for its exceptional potential, characterized by clay-limestone soils similar to those of Saint-Émilion. The 20-hectare vineyard is planted mainly with Merlot (95%) and a small proportion of Cabernet Franc (5%), with a tendency to replant exclusively with Merlot in the future. Vinification takes place in traditional concrete vats, followed by ageing in French oak barrels, some of which are new, for around 18 to 20 months. Domaine de l'Aurage wines are distinguished by their richness, balance and elegance, reflecting family know-how and the unique character of their terroir.
