Producer Information

Château Dassault is a Saint-Emilion Grand Cru Classé wine estate located just north of the town of Saint-Emilion, in the Bordeaux wine region. The estate was formerly known as Château Couperie and its name was changed following its acquisition by French aviation billionaire Serge Dassault in 1955. Although not featured in the original 1955 classification of Saint-Emilion, after approximately ten years of investment and improvements the estate eventually gained Grand Cru Classé status in 1969. Renowned enologist, Michel Rolland has acted as consultant winemaker at the estate since 1975, and in 1995 Laurence Brun took on the role of general manager. Today, Château Dassault is a member of Dassault Wine Estates, a collection of three Saint-Émilion Grand Cru Classé estates that also includes Château La Fleur and Château Faurie de Souchard. The Château Dassault vineyards cover just over 24 hectares (60 acres) on the northern hillsides of the Saint-Émilion plateau. These slopes are composed largely of sand and limestone soils and are primarily planted to Merlot (75 percent), with smaller plantings of Cabernet Franc (22 percent) and Cabernet Sauvignon (5 percent).
