A Wine Château in Saint-Émilion
Earlier this year, at VinExpo in Bordeaux, wine aficionados packed two separate seminars devoted to the subject of buying wine châteaux in Bordeaux. Guests scribbled notes on distribution policy, map discrepancies, and fluctuations in the market as they dreamed of running a (probably small) business as a passion project. Bloomberg wine critic Elin McCoy rounded up everything your billionaire will need to know in covering the event, so why not get shopping? This particular château, has 46.7 hectares of vines, four separate wineries, and a small chunk of the grand cru Saint-Émilion. The château itself is lovely to look at but could use an update. Tennis court and swimming pool are included because, really, you’re doing this for fun, not to make money. (Trust us.)
