The classification took place in 1955.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003eIn 1955, a classification was carried out for the Saint-Émilion wine-growing region based on the quality and price of the wines produced by the wineries. Three groups were created in a hierarchical manner. The special thing about this classification is that wineries must always reapply. A committee then decides on the classification.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e The application and classification procedure for the classification takes place at irregular intervals.
