i. Biography
Georges Pauli is the oenologist of Château Ramage La Batisse in Saint-Sauveur en Médoc, France. The work there stays with classic vinification: each cuvée is followed individually, a third of the harvest goes through malolactic fermentation in barrels, and aging lasts at least 12 months in oak barrels, one third of them new.
The Path
At Château Gruaud-Larose in St.-Julien, Georges Pauli worked first as technical director and then as winemaker. That background now reads directly into the cellar discipline at Château Ramage La Batisse, where the focus remains on controlled vinification rather than broad handling.
The Work Today
At the Médoc estate, Georges Pauli’s post is oenology. The task is to keep each cuvée under separate attention, carrying forward a method built in St.-Julien and applied here through a closely managed cellar process.
