History of Château La Grande Clotte

Coming from families of Cognac producers, young owners Julie and Mathieu Mercier fell in love with Château La Grande Clotte. This couple of agronomist engineer and winemaker embarked on the adventure by acquiring the castle in 2016.

Estate initially entrusted in farming for 25 years, the charm and potential of the place seduced the new owners who aim to give back to this place its letters of nobility. With a family winemaking experience and an international professional background, Julie and Mathieu produce their wines there with passion and an innovative mindset.

Travellers' review - Château La Grande Clotte

  • Thank you Stay from May 13, 2024 to May 15, 2024

    Excellent stay at Chateau LA GRANDE CLOTTE. Julie and Mathieu are very professional and welcoming. We discovered their estate and tasted the château's wines. The château is well located, brand new and very comfortable. The meal at the Auberge St. Jean was excellent and the owners very friendly. The Bistrot de la Gare was very pleasant. I recommend this stay. All the people we met were very professional. Thank you very much. Mr. and Mrs. ZMAHER

  • Very pleasant stay and beautiful discoveries

    We stayed at Château La Grande Clotte. We very much appreciated Julie and Mathieu's attentive welcome, the comfort of the place, the breakfasts with local produce, and the very interesting discussions during the tour of the winery and vineyards. Their wines are excellent. The program was well balanced, with several activities at Château Grand Ferrand (visit, blending workshop and tastings), and free time to discover Saint-Emilion and the surrounding area. The three restaurants on offer (le bistrot de la gare in Puisseguin, l'Auberge Saint-Jean in Saint-Jean de Blagnac, l'Envers du décor in Saint-Emilion) were all great, each in a different style. We also really enjoyed visiting the monolithic church, strolling through Saint-Emilion and its surrounding vineyards, and last but not least, discovering the wines. All in all, a lot of fun. This type of stay, a first for us, makes us want to come back. Gérard and Isabelle

  • Magnificent stay in the heart of a vineyard

    We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Château La Grande Clotte. Quiet location in the middle of the vineyards, a warm welcome from the very helpful owners, a very pleasant and comfortable room - in short, we'd recommend it. The restaurants we chose, including Le Bistrot de la Gare and Auberge St Jean, were wonderful. Bravo for the organization! Stay to be repeated in this beautiful region!

  • The wines of the estate

    The owners strive to produce a traditional wine, accessible to all. Their wine is in their image: it tells their story, strong with their North-American experience.

    Several times rewarded, the quality of their wine and its reputation is no longer to be made: some wine specialist magazines regularly highlight it. From their first vintage from the 2016 harvest, they obtained 2 stars in the Michelin Hachette wine guide.

    Château La Grande Clotte also welcomes you to spend the night on site, within recently renovated and tastefully decorated accommodation. The guest room, ideally located between the house and the cellars of the estate, offers a relaxing and refreshing escape in the heart of the Lussac vineyard, a few minutes from Saint-Emilion.

    You will appreciate the living room area which opens directly onto the vineyards, access to the outside to enjoy the breathtaking view of the vines, as well as the breakfast composed of homemade and local products.
