The 2012 classification
[edit]The classification comprises 18 Premiers grands crus classés and 64 Grands crus classés.
Other categories
[edit]Over two hundred other Saint-Émilion wines carry the description "Grand Cru", however this designation is awarded under the basic appellation rules and is not part of the formal 1955 classification.[2] Wines in this category are not seen as being of comparable quality to the Grand Cru Classés.[3][4]
