Château Petit-Freylon Cuvée Sarah Bordeaux Supérieur 2022

Château Petit-Freylon is located in the small Aquitaine village of Saint-Genis-du-Bois, a tiny village boasting less than 100 inhabitants. The estate belonged to the Lagrange family for generations until 2011, when it was purchased by La Société PESA. Since that time, the new owners have invested heavily in the château’s wine-making facilities and have installed such improvements such as new tanks, barrels, and thermo-vinification systems. 

The vineyard at Château Petit-Freylon covers 30 hectares (75 acres), of which 20 hectares are within the Bordeaux Supérieur appellation. The soils are clay and limestone. Growing on 30 year old vines, the Château grows an assortment of the Bordeaux grape varietals, including Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, with average yields of 50 hectoliters per hectare.

Since 2016, Château Petit-Freylon has been a part of the Bordeaux Environmental Management System Association in an effort to reduce their impact on the environment.The estate heavily invested in numerous conservation initiatives such as recycling waste, improving biodiversity, reworking vineyard management, efficient use of resources and counteracting all forms of pollution. Everyone at Petit-Freylon is notably involved in each step of this process; from the pruning of the vine to the final bottling of each vintage. These efforts to protect the environment have resulted in Petit-Freylong being awarded the High Environmental Value (HVE Level 3) certification, as well as a ISO 14001 certification.
