Chateau La Reverence (which means "curtsey") is a micro-estate located by Chateau Chauvin and Chateau Grand Corbin near the medieval village of Saint Emilion. The Chateau was originally called Chateau Clos Jeans Voisin, but was changed to La Reverence when winemaker Emeric Petit acquired the estate in 2003.
Petit is a young, dynamic up-and-coming winemaker specialized in producing outstanding garage/boutique wines at value prices on Bordeaux's right bank. He learned how to make wine under the guidance of famous oenologist Jean-Claud Berrouet (Petrus) and Catherine Cohen. Today he is a rising star and also owns Chateau Tournefeuille and Chateau L'Ecuyer.
