The appellation area is enclosed by the Montagne A.O.C. area, and the Barbanne River separates it from the Saint-Emilion area.

The terroir is therefore similar to that of its neighbours, that is, consistent limestone slopes enjoying a very good southern exposure.

Saint-Georges wines are full of colour, with a deep dense crimson colour, and well-structured; their velvety and fruity tannins increase in complexity with age.
