Eight generations of family winemaking in Saint-Emilion, now led by Alexia and Pierre Bouyer since 1999. Château Milon was among the first estates in the appellation to earn HVE (Haute Valeur Environnementale) certification for sustainable farming. Cuvée Caprice is pure Merlot from gravel soils, aged just six months to preserve freshness—designed for early drinking pleasure. A true overdeliverer: Grand Cru Saint-Emilion quality at an accessible price point.
