Winery Château Petit Faurie de Soutard

The name derives from "Faurie" and the nearby Château Soutard. Documents mention a vineyard at "Petit Faurie" as early as 1837; in 1850 two parcels were detached from Château Soutard, one of which became today's Petit Faurie. The estate passed through several owners. It was classified Saint-Émilion Grand Cru Classé in the first classification of 1955; the name changed to Petit Faurie de Soutard in 1969. In 2017 the AG2R LA MONDIALE group acquired the property and launched an improvement program focused on agroecology.

Production focused on fruit quality and environmental stewardship: agroecological vineyard management, increased biodiversity, agroforestry and cover crops to improve soil health, hand harvesting and animal-drawn operations for some stages.

Situated near the village of Saint-Émilion, the vineyard extends across a limestone plateau and the northern escarpment; soils consist of clay, limestone and sand. The estate overlooks the wine region recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Classification: Saint-Émilion Grand Cru Classé; Environmental certification: HVE level 3.
