The estate

A magnificent property located on the right bank of BordeauxChâteau Palais Cardinal takes its name from the ancient mansion dating from the 12th and 13th centuries, whose remains are still visible. Château Palais Cardinal enjoys a fantastic location in the Saint-Émilion appellation.

The delicate palate seduces with its structure and tension on the mid-palate.
