In 2005, Catherine Péré-Vergé became the owner of Château La Violette, a jewel of the Pomerol plateau with a subsoil of iron dross, the "Saint of Saints" according to oenologist Michel Rolland.

Situated on the heights of the famous Pomerol plateau between Trotanoy and Le Pin, the vineyard is made up of 40-year-old vines. Château La Violette wines are made exclusively from Merlot, which provides finesse, body and fruit.
