Vineyard

The Chateau has had a seven-generation history of winemaking before us, and we carry this legacy into the future with our commitment to the environment. Since November 2017, we committed to achieving organic certification which we were granted in 2020. Now we are a certified organic vineyard by Ecocert and all our wines are organically produced. Our goal will continue to be to grow the healthiest grapes the land will give us, in order to create the best wines that we can, that speak of the Blaye region.
