This familial estate of 40 hectares in production includes 36 hectares of Cabernet sauvignon and Merlot for the production of red wine and 4 hectares of Sauvignon and Semillon for the production of white wine.
Château de France red and Château de France blanc share worldwide distinctions.
The estate is located on the Graves’area typical rare Ferbos soil and – more confidential – an 19-million year old parcel called “Coquillat”
