Vinification, winemaker's own words
- Soils:
- Clay, Gravel, Limestone
- Terroir:
- Saint-Paul grows on a sunny, south-facing hillside in Saint-Seurin-de-Cadourne, where red and blue clay soils give the wine its fresh, smooth style. The clay holds water naturally, helping the vines stay balanced even in warm summers.
- Harvest:
- Picked by hand, Mechanically
- Fermentation:
- Steel (100%)
- Storage:
- Steel (33%) 12 months
New oak (33%) 12 months
Old oak (33%) 12 months - Winemaker:
- Arnaud Villette
Fermentation takes place in concrete and stainless-steel vats, with gentle extractions to keep the fruit bright and fresh. A portion undergoes malolactic fermentation in barrel, adding roundness and texture. Pump-overs are done delicately, sometimes by hand, to respect the purity of the grapes. The goal: a clean, vibrant Médoc with natural energy.

Château Saint-Paul is the easy-going neighbour of Charmail, perched on the sunny slopes of Saint-Seurin-de-Cadourne — a village where vines have been grown for centuries. Winemaker Arnaud Villette, originally from Normandie, brings a cool, relaxed touch to the cellar, crafting smooth, generous wines without pretension. The estate’s gravel-and-clay soils overlook the Gironde estuary, and its history even includes a past chapter with the famous candle-making family of Lourdes. Today, Saint-Paul is classic Médoc with a laid-back vibe — perfect for anyone who loves good wine without overthinking it.
