The elegance and richness of a Sauternes wine
The estate
With harvests first carried out in 1618, Clos Haut-Peyraguey is a historic Sauternes property. This Premier Grand Cru Classé of Sauternes in 1855 is also the smallest of the appellation in terms of surface area, covering 8.5 hectares. Located on the highest part of the Bommes hill, Clos Haut-Peyraguey takes its name from Peyraguey which means hill or promontory. Acquired in 2012 by Bernard Magrez, Clos Haut-Peyraguey is one of the most beautiful cru classés in Sauternes.
