More About the 2020 GALIUS SAINT-EMILION GRAND CRU: In the heart of Saint-Émilion, Château Galius carries the legacy of a legendary Roman soldier. Named for Galius, a warrior who traded his sword for land to grow vines, the estate honors the region's Gallo-Roman roots and its enduring viticultural tradition. Today, Château Galius continues this legacy across eleven hectares of sustainably farmed vineyards.
