The History
In the heart of the Saint-Emilion appella on, neighboring the Premier Grand Cru Classé “A” Château Pavie and the Grand Cru Classé La Gaffelière.

The very particular care taken both in the vineyard and in the vinification allows Château Chante-Alouette to claim the Grand Cru appellation each year.
