A brief history
The path of Adrien Uijttewaal to become a winegrower was not predestined! Born in the Limousin region, he grew up on a dairy farm and discovered the Médoc only at the age of 18 when he started picking grapes in the region. He then decided to settle in the Médoc region and create an estate based on his two passions : wine growing and cattle breeding.
In 1995, after 10 harvests produced in a wine cooperative, he built a wine cellar, allowing him to produce wine himself at Queyrac, next to the 18th century home that he would restore together with his wife. Over the years, the estate grew in importance to reach over 60 ha of vines registered under Médoc AOC and a herd of 180 “Blondes d’Aquitaine”.
