Our Wines
"At Château George 7, our mission is to make the very best wines we can.
We make AOC Fronsac red wines that capture the essence of the potential of Fronsac today: fruit-forward, fresh with a touch of minerality from the underlying limestone along with silky tannins and a lingering elegance and finesse.
2021 saw our first white wine that is fresh with ripe stone fruits and candied citrus fruit along with a beautiful mouthfeel from new barrel fermentation. "
