(Decanter) - All the demoted chateaux from 2006 have made it through the St Emilion classification this time, except Chateau La Tour du Pin Figeac. Chateau Magdeleine – a Premier Grand Cru Classé which has caused some confusion by its non-appearance on the list – has been merged into its sister property, also Premier Grand Cru Classé, Bélair-Monange.
'This estate will now effectively fall under the name of the new property, Chateau Bélair-Monange,' owners JP Moeuix said.
