Château La Rose Perrière Blanc is made with respect for nature, tradition, and quality.

This vineyard is one of the oldest in the Lussac Saint-Emilion appellation. In the Middle Ages, a monastery was established there, and monks were the first to plant vines on the estate's limestone slope. In 2003, Jean-Luc Sylvain, famous Cooper of the right bank, buys the property and undertaking extensive renovation: the winery, vineyards and buildings.

The château has good sun exposure, an excellent geographical situation, and benefits from fine limestone subsoil. The outcropping parent rock is covered by a layer of crum- bling clay-limestone soil less than 30 cm deep.

Château La Rose Perrière Blanc is made with the grapes of a plot planted mostly with Sauvignon Blanc.
