List of products by brand CHATEAU SACRE COEUR

Established on a 1.5-hectare parcel at the heart of Pomerol in the Gironde, Château Sacre Coeur produces a Bordeaux rouge from soils of gravel and fine sands. Taken over in 2012 by Jean-Philippe Janoueix — following an earlier chapter under the Feytout family — the château draws directly on the terroir of Château La Croix, giving its Merlot and Cabernet Franc blend a finesse and depth characteristic of the Right Bank. At Halles Quercamps, we have selected this château for the singularity of its Pomerol parcel, the rigour of the Janoueix family, and the aromatic precision of its red wines. A discreet address well worth seeking out.

Château Sacre Coeur occupies a 1.5-hectare parcel on the celebrated terroir of Pomerol, one of the most sought-after appellations on Bordeaux's Right Bank. From soils of gravel and fine sands, Merlot and Cabernet Franc yield red wines of remarkable precision and character.

A story of family and terroir

The history of Château Sacre Coeur is one of transmission and commitment. For three years, the vines were farmed by the Feytout family, before Jean-Philippe Janoueix took over the property in 2012. A member of one of the Right Bank's most established négociant dynasties, Janoueix brought with him a clear ambition: to craft a wine that speaks honestly of its ground. The parcel in question sits within the terroir of Château La Croix at Pomerol — a location that lends the wine an immediate sense of place, even under the broader Bordeaux appellation.

A parcel of Pomerol: gravel, sand, and Right Bank character

At just 1.5 hectares, this is a genuinely small-scale production. The soils — a blend of gravel and fine sands — are well-drained and warm quickly in spring, favouring the early-ripening Merlot that dominates the blend. Cabernet Franc plays a supporting but meaningful role, contributing structure, lift, and a distinctive floral note that is a hallmark of the finest Pomerol-area wines. The combination of this terroir and the Janoueix family's exacting standards in the vineyard and cellar results in a red wine that punches well above the weight of its appellation designation. Do not be misled by the Bordeaux AOC label: the address is Pomerol, and the wine reflects it.

Winemaking: precision over intervention

Under Jean-Philippe Janoueix, the approach at Château Sacre Coeur favours restraint and respect for the raw material. Vinification is conducted with close attention to the individual character of each vintage, allowing the gravel and sand soils to express themselves through the wine rather than masking them with heavy-handed élevage. The result is a Bordeaux rouge with genuine depth, supple tannins, and a persistence on the palate that rewards patience in the cellar.

Why we have selected Château Sacre Coeur

At Halles Quercamps, we are drawn to producers whose wines carry a genuine sense of origin — and Château Sacre Coeur is a fine example. The Janoueix family's reputation on the Right Bank is well founded, and Jean-Philippe's stewardship of this small parcel since 2012 has produced wines of consistent quality and character. The fact that these vines sit within the Pomerol terroir, yet are offered under the Bordeaux appellation, makes this one of the more interesting value propositions we list from the Gironde. We recommend these wines to enthusiasts who know their Right Bank well and appreciate the story behind the label — and equally to those who are beginning to explore Pomerol's celebrated soils without committing to the prices of the appellation's classified names. At the table, look to roasted lamb, duck confit, or a well-aged hard cheese.
