Region:Bordeaux - Graves
This is a bespoke wine made in collaboration with Charles Medeville at Château du Seuil. We've been working with Château du Seuil for the best part of 20 years and our long relationship has given us access to some of the best barrels in the cellar. Expect a modern Bordeaux in the glass, with plenty of ripe fruit on offer which envelops a core of classic stoney Graves structure and a long finish of finely balanced tannins.

Charles Medeville
Charles Medeville proudly represents the 8th generation of winemakers in his family. After studying both law and the wine trade, his curiosity drew him to the art of winemaking. Following several harvests, and with the trust placed in him by longtime acquaintances Nicola and Sean Allison, he assumed responsibility for Château du Seuil in 2021, overseeing its cellars and vines. His winemaking philosophy revolves around honouring his terroir and the traditions of winemaking, while incorporating modern innovations.
"We are excited about the Emigré Rouge: it's a step forward for us and Virgin and it's been a while coming. This Graves red captures the essence of our terroir with a modern twist, blending the richness of clayey-gravel soils with the vibrant fruitiness and freshness characteristic of our innovative approach. It exemplifies our commitment to crafting wines that harmonize tradition with contemporary flair, perfect for enjoying with a variety of cuisines or savouring on its own." - Charles Medeville, Winemaker.
