Keithstg Posted September 11, 2006 Share Posted September 11, 2006 I was a bit surprised that Pavie was not promoted, given the absorbption of La Clusiere. Mark, do you happen to know where La Mondotte falls nowadays? It seemed like Von Niepperg was putting some serious time and effort behind that wine. Anyway, promotions are hard to come by in these classifications, it seems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wine Guy 23 Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 So the idea to exempt the newly appointed chateaus of St.Emillion, and to drop class rank of a few as well in the Grand Cru Classe scheme of things has officially been dismissed, and the 2006 update is now complete, and can be warranted as truth.ST. EMILLION GRAND CRU CLASSES now what are the ones that were updated, and dropped? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
