The immaculate Chateau Julien covers 21 hectares of vines, including four hectares of Bordeaux rouge, close to Lussac St Emilion. The chateau has received significant investment and renovation in the vineyard and cellars from the current owner, who purchased the property from the family that had previously owned the chateau for three generations. They cultivate the vines sustainably and work closely alongside innovative winemaker Ludovic Labarrere, who vinifies using egg-shaped fermenters and produces elegantly styled Bordeaux wines. 

The vines are sustainably cultivated, with grass sown between the vine rows to stabilise and decompress the soil, sending the vine roots deep into the soil. The vineyard is situated on silty and sandy soils, which impart soft tannins, roundness, and delicacy to the wine. The yields are carefully controlled to concentrate the flavours in the berries.
