About the estate Château Trianon has deep historical roots dating back to the 17th century and is located just outside the medieval village of Saint-Émilion. In 2000, the estate was purchased and revitalized by Dominique Hébrard, former co-owner of Château Cheval Blanc, one of Bordeaux’s most iconic names. Under his direction, Trianon has been transformed into a modern Grand Cru with a focus on precision and elegance. The vineyard is planted primarily with Merlot, complemented by Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, and the rare Carménère, grown on the clay-limestone soils that give Saint-Émilion its distinctive finesse and complexity.
