A historic gem between Castillon-la-Bataille and Saint-Émilion Overlooking the hillsides of Castillon-la-Bataille, famous for the 1453 battle that marked the end of the Hundred Years’ War, the château spans 112 hectares of vineyards, meadows and woodland, just a few kilometres from Saint-Émilion. Built from the 14th century onwards and remodelled in the 19th century, this exceptional estate combines history and prestige. Its architecture, typical of the 15th century with its steeply pitched roofs of flat tiles and three corner towers—one of which houses a chapel—makes it a rare example of Bordeaux’s heritage. The grounds, surrounded by walls and round towers, offer breathtaking views of the valley.

The winery, dating from 1863 and listed on the ISMH, is organised over two levels for gravity-fed processing, featuring temperature-controlled concrete vats (45hl to 300hl) and six 150hl stainless steel vats. Sustainable viticulture and the estate’s organisation offer unique flexibility for future owners. A unique living environment, blending history and modernit.
