]]> Château Lagrange is a wine estate located in the Saint-Julien appellation, one of the most prestigious appellations in the Médoc, in the Bordeaux wine region of France. Its history goes back several centuries. The first traces of a vineyard at Lagrange date back to the Middle Ages. In the 17th century, the estate belonged to the de Gorce noble family of Saint-Julien. The château was built during this period, and the estate was extended through the acquisition of additional plots. In 1824, the château was bought by the Baron de Brane, owner of the prestigious Château Brane-Cantenac, also in Saint-Julien. Baron de Brane invested heavily to modernise the facilities and improve the quality of the wines produced at Lagrange. In 1842, the château was sold to the Cendoya family, of Basque origin. They continued to modernise and improve the estate. The vineyard was extended and restructured, and the buildings were renovated.

In 1983, the château was acquired by the Japanese company Suntory, becoming the first French wine estate to be bought by a foreign company. Suntory invested heavily in the estate, modernising the equipment and renewing the vines. They also hired oenologist Marcel Ducasse to oversee the vinification process. In 2005, Suntory sold Château Lagrange to the French spirits company La Maison les Domaines Delon, owned by the Delon family. The Delon family also owns Château Léoville-Las Cases, another Saint-Julien Grand Cru Classé. This acquisition enabled synergy between the two estates and more harmonious management of the vineyards. Since then, the Delon family has continued to manage Château Lagrange successfully. The vineyard covers around 118 hectares and is planted mainly with traditional Bordeaux grape varieties such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Petit Verdot. Château Lagrange produces wines renowned for their power, elegance and ability to age well.

Today, Château Lagrange is classified as a third growth in the official Bordeaux wine classification of 1855, testifying to its quality and reputation within the Saint-Julien appellation.

]]> It is in Burgundy that the Rousseau family has been working for 4 generations with the same passion and the most beautiful terroirs of the Côte de Nuits...

Eric runs the Domaine with the help of his daughter Cyrielle.

This passion for the vine is reborn again and again in the Rousseau family... This deep respect for the terroir is rooted in the family.

]]> The Milhard-Bessard family perpetuates the viticultural traditions of the Grand Saint-Emilionnais by offering an authentic organic wine. The fruit of ancestral know-how, Château Vieux Mougnac is much more than just a wine, it is a heritage, a know-how and values that have been passed on since 1870. Indeed, for 5 generations, the vines have been cultivated in an organic way with the great principles of biodynamics. From this passion for nature comes an authentic, rare, unique wine, a Grand Vin de Garde served on the finest tables in France and abroad!

Sylvie Milhard, the 4th generation, first worked as an accountant in the Libourne region before continuing her parents' work.
Born in the midst of the boom in intensive agriculture, she quickly realised that her family's estate was one of the few in the region not to follow the path of globalisation. In order to preserve this know-how and philosophy, Sylvie took over Château Vieux Mougnac in 1991.
For her, this estate is much more than just a vineyard, it is a heritage that must be preserved and passed on to future generations.

The particularity of Château Vieux Mougnac is to market old vintages; wines ready to drink.
