Château Berliquet is a Saint-Émilion Grand Cru Classé estate rooted on the Magdeleine plateau, neighbouring Château Canon. Founded in 1768, this 10-hectare property has belonged to Chanel since 2017 and maintains organic-certified vineyards since 2024, with a particular focus on Cabernet Franc. Under the leadership of Nicolas Audebert, Berliquet crafts taut, mineral-driven wines shaped by the interplay of limestone and clay, displaying both refinement and elegance.

L'histoire du domaine

The history of Château Berliquet dates back to at least 1768, when the estate already appeared on Belleyme's maps, making it one of the oldest names in the Saint-Émilion vineyard. By 1784, it commanded record prices for the era. After belonging to the de Sèze and Pérès families, the property was acquired in 1918 by the Comte de Carles, whose successor, Vicomte Patrick de Lesquen, chose in 1953 to join the local cooperative. It was not until 1978 that the château built its own winery to vinify on site, a decisive step that enabled Berliquet to regain its Grand Cru Classé status in 1986 — the only estate promoted that year. From 1997, Patrick Valette took charge of the property, soon joined in 2008 by Nicolas Thienpont and Stéphane Derenoncourt, who elevated the wines to new heights. In July 2017, Chanel, through the Wertheimer family, acquired Berliquet, placing Nicolas Audebert at the helm to undertake a profound transformation, crowned in 2024 with organic certification.

Le terroir

The Berliquet vineyard extends over 10 hectares in a single block — of which 7 are dedicated to the grand vin — on the Magdeleine plateau, nestled between Château Canon and Château Bélair-Monange. The terroir is structured in three distinct strata: one-third on the limestone plateau, one-third mid-slope, and one-third at the foot of the slope, composed of brown clay and clay-sand soils. This geological mosaic offers both the mineral tension of limestone and the depth of clay, lending the wines their taut character and remarkable finesse. Upon his arrival in 2017, Nicolas Audebert commissioned a detailed soil mapping with terroir specialists, initiating an ambitious programme of progressive replanting to increase the proportion of Cabernet Franc to over a third of the total plantings, convinced that this variety finds its highest expression here. Certified organic since the 2024 vintage, the estate also cultivates biodiversity, with Mediterranean borders of lavender and fennel running alongside the parcels. Soil work is partly carried out with the aid of a horse, to aerate and reveal the raw material while respecting the living ecosystem.

Les vins

The Château Berliquet range centres on a grand vin blended from Merlot (around 60 to 70%) now combined with Cabernet Franc (30 to 40%), with an occasional touch of Malbec reintroduced in recent vintages. The evolution of the grape varieties, driven by Nicolas Audebert, aims to express with even greater precision the limestone character of the terroir and the aromatic finesse that Cabernet Franc achieves here. Vinification takes place parcel by parcel in small 20-hectolitre temperature-controlled stainless steel vats, allowing precise micro-vinification tailored to each batch. After a 20 to 30-day maceration and malolactic fermentation in barrels, the wines are aged for 16 months in French oak barrels (45 to 50% new wood) and amphorae (approximately 22%), within the monolithic limestone quarries located beneath the vineyard — an underground setting conducive to harmonious maturation. The Berliquet style is recognisable by its mineral tension, limestone structure with an almost saline finish, polished tannins, and aromatic complexity blending red and dark fruits, floral notes, Mediterranean vegetation, and gentle spices. Since 1993, the estate has also produced a second wine, Les Ailes de Berliquet.

Le vigneron

At the helm of Château Berliquet since 2017, Nicolas Audebert embodies a vision that is both exacting and modern in Bordeaux viticulture. Trained as an agricultural engineer and having worked at the prestigious Champagne house Krug, he then joined Cheval des Andes in Argentina — a collaboration between Château Cheval Blanc and Terrazas de los Andes — where he honed his approach to winemaking and terroir over a decade. Now managing director of Berliquet as well as Château Canon, Château Rauzan-Ségla, and Domaine de l'Île in Porquerolles, he brings obsessive attention to every detail, from vineyard to cellar. Upon his arrival, he undertook detailed soil mapping and initiated a progressive replanting programme to restore Cabernet Franc to its rightful place on this exceptional limestone terroir. A technologist with an eye for precision as much as a farmer attuned to ecologies and seasons, he works hand in hand with consultant oenologists Éric Boissenot and Thomas Duclos. Recognised in 2025 among France's 50 best winemakers, Nicolas Audebert is elevating Berliquet to new heights, driven by a profound conviction: that the greatness of a wine is born first in the vineyards, cultivated with care and respect for the living ecosystem.
