Chateau Montrose

Founded in 1815 when Théodore Dumoulin cleared a patch of heathland everyone had forgotten about before planting his first vines. In 1855 Château Montrose was established as a Second Growth, a spectacular recognition because it honoured a vineyard that was only 40 years old at the time. Martin and Olivier Bouygues acquired Château Montrose in 2006, aware of the potential of its unique terroir, they appreciated the advantages and riches of the estate and decided to invest in it.

Bordeaux

Bordeaux, one of the most prestigious wine regions in the world, is located in southwestern France and is celebrated for its exceptional wines. It benefits from a temperate maritime climate, influenced by the nearby Atlantic Ocean, providing ideal conditions for viticulture. It is particularly renowned for its red wines, primarily blends of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Cabernet Franc, offering rich, complex flavours and excellent ageing potential. Notable sub-regions include Médoc, Saint-Émilion, and Pomerol. Bordeaux also produces exquisite white wines, both dry, from Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon, and sweet, from the Sauternes and Barsac areas. The region's unique terroir, combined with centuries-old winemaking traditions, results in wines of unparalleled quality and distinction. Bordeaux remains a must-visit destination for wine enthusiasts seeking world-class wines and a rich viticultural heritage.
