Château La Fon du Berger
A brief history
The adventure began in 1983, when Gérard Bougès settled on the family land of Fournas, in the town of Saint Sauveur.
It was with passion and determination that he bought and planted other plots to arrive in 1988 to produce his first vintage at the property, a vintage which was the sign of a promising destiny.
What follows will reveal other acquisitions and plantations, and the construction of the current vat room as an extension of the barrel cellar in 1999. This one is entirely made up of stainless steel vats and provides a functional and modern working tool.
1999 was the year of the first winemaking of Pauillac on the farm.
