Saby family
Have you ever heard of a family winery that's been operating for nine generations? That's Famille Saby, from the heart of the Saint-Émilion region. Since 1775, this dynasty has been cultivating wine here with passion and vision – and their empire is impressive: 70 hectares of vineyards spread across seven appellations, including Saint-Émilion Grand Cru, Fronsac, and Lalande-de-Pomerol.
The Saby family's portfolio reads like a who's who of the Libournais region : Château Rozier, Château Saint-André Corbin, Château Hauchat, Château Bertin – nine châteaux in total bear their signature. Their Château Saby Saint-Émilion Grand Cru is made from 100% Merlot and delights with aromas of ripe cherries, blackcurrants, cedar, and dark chocolate. On the palate, it reveals velvety tannins, harmonious acidity, and a long, elegant finish. A true family gem – try it for yourself!
Famille Saby –
Nine generations of Bordeaux from Saint-Émilion
Since 1775, the Saby family has cultivated their vineyards in the heart of the Libournais region – now in its ninth generation, with 70 hectares spread across seven appellations: Saint-Émilion Grand Cru, Fronsac, Lalande-de-Pomerol, and other sites on the right bank. Nine châteaux bear their signature, including Château Rozier, Château Saint-André Corbin, and Château Hauchat.
The focus is on Merlot – the leading grape variety of the Libournais region, which reveals its velvety, fruit-forward side on the clay-rich soils around Saint-Émilion . The Château Saby Saint-Émilion Grand Cru, a single-varietal Merlot, brings ripe cherry, cassis, and a hint of cedar to the glass, supported by soft tannins and a long finish. Ideal with braised lamb, duck breast, or a mature Comté cheese.
What distinguishes the Saby family is the combination of generations of accumulated experience and a clearly structured terroir-based approach: Each of the nine châteaux is vinified according to its specific vineyard site, without imposing a uniform style on the origin. Anyone wishing to understand the diversity of the Right Bank will find a reliable starting point in the Saby family's portfolio.
