The Vineyard of the Château des Laurets is located straddling the names Puisin Saint-Emilion and Mountain Saint-Emilion.The entrance to the estate offers a view of a superb castle built around 1860, the architectural particularity of which lies in the existence of an octagonal central tower dominating its rear part and overlooking the vineyard.Installed on hillsides exposed to the south and revealing limestone outcrops in places, this excellent terroir gives the Merlot de Saint-Emilion all its power and typicity.

Baron Benjamin de Rothschild acquired and renovated this superb property in 2003, with the desire to develop all its potential. The Rothschild family of Bordeaux owns some of the most iconic châteaux in the region, including Château Lafite Rothschild and Château Mouton Rothschild, both located in the commune of Pauillac in the Haut-Médoc district. These estates are two of the five Grand Cru Classe châteaux in this area, and the wines are among the most sought after of any red wines in the world. But the family also owns other châteaux in Bordeaux that are not as famous as their two flagships. One of these is Château Clarke in Listrac-Médoc, located nine miles northwest of the city of Bordeaux, a few miles south of Pauillac.
