About the Winery
Dating back to the early 1600’s Chateau Coutet St. Emilion was already a small, vineyard. The property has remained in the hands of the Beaulieu family for almost 300 years! In fact, the Beaulieu family has owned the vineyard since 1784! That is close to a record in all of Bordeaux, let alone, St. Emilion for continuous ownership by the same family. A walk among Coutet’s vines helps understand why the Saint-Émilion landscape is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site
