Chateau Haut Sarpe first came into prominence when the estate earned a gold medal for their wine in 1867, at the World Fair in Paris. As the name implies, it shares a common heritage with Clos de Sarpe. In fact, both properties were at once time owned by the same family.

The Jean-François Janoueix family owns Château Haut-Sarpe, Saint-Émilion Grand Cru Classé. Built along the hill and on the edge of the limestone plateau, this vineyard is one of the oldest and most famous in Saint-Émilion. The site has been listed on the map of Belleyme since the 18th century
