Generations of Neipperg Saint-Émilion Grand Cru

The Generations von Neipperg is the entry point into the world of one of the most famous wineries in Saint-Émilion — accessible, yet with real depth.

The Comtes von Neipperg have been cultivating vineyards on the Right Bank of Bordeaux for centuries. Today, Stephan von Neipperg manages the family estate, which, in addition to the famous Château Canon-la-Gaffelière, includes several other estates in Saint-Émilion. Cultivation and cellar practices follow ecological principles — the soils are worked without synthetic pesticides, allowing the terroir to speak for itself.

In the glass, the wine displays the classic profile of a Merlot-driven Saint-Émilion: dark blackberry and plum, underscored by cocoa and a hint of cinnamon bark. The tannins are soft, the body is medium-full, and the finish is pleasantly long with a light spice.
