The estate is High Environmental Value (HEV) certified; herbicides are prohibited and all effluents are recycled. Our wines are made from a traditional mixture of Bordeaux grape varieties: merlot (40%), cabernet franc (35%) and cabernet sauvignon (25%). Wines from Château Brande-Bergère have won many awards (Gold Medal in Paris, World Wine Award from Decanter magazine, rated by the world's finest wine critics and available at some of the finest restaurants, including the 3-Michelin starred Arpège in Paris. The famous British wine critic, Jancis Robinson, awarded the Château Brande-Bergère Cuvée O’Byrne 2009 a score of 92/100. Among her comments, she said: "Here is another example of a wine that is punching way above its price in terms of the pleasure delivered. It’s packed full of fruit and charm… It’s impressively concentrated and extremely satisfying with the tannins well in retreat and no very obvious oak. I particularly enjoyed the combination of richness on palate entry and freshness on exit." More recently, the International Wine Report, a professional US reviewing platform, awarded it 92/100 for the 2018 vintage. Château Brande-Bergère is famed for offering some of the best value for money on the market.

  2. CHÂTEAU LE BREZEGUET

    France

    The CHATEAU LE BREZEGUET estate was taken over in 1999 and produces wines from vines averaging 25 years old using Malbec grape stock. To produce its wines, warm vinification lasts about three weeks and the wine is then matured for at least 18 months. CHÂTEAU LE BREZEGUET also produces a vintage from its old vines that are 35–40 years old. It is a 100% Malbec vintage. Vinification lasts 3–4 weeks with a final warm vinification and the wine is matured exclusively in oak casks for at least 18 months. Lastly, CHÂTEAU LE BREZEGUET also produces a wine from its youngest vines, CHEMIN DE COMPOSTELLE. The grape stocks used are Malbec and Merlot. They are highly aromatic thirst-quenchers that come in red and rosé wines. As a result of the owners' single-mindedness these wines have won prizes and the vineyard is now expanding with the purchase of 12 hectares of vineyards in 2015 from CHÂTEAU GRAND CHÊNE.

  3. CHÂTEAU TAYAC

    France

    Château TAYAC is a family estate. The vineyard is located in the Médoc and covers 37 hectares in the heart of the prestigious Margaux appellation. The PORTET harvesting owner family applies the COUSINIE method providing a generous nutritional contribution to vines whilst significantly limiting treatments. The vineyard is perched in the gravel hills of Soussans, in the Médoc, and covers 37 hectares in the heart of the prestigious Margaux wine-growing area. Château TAYAC is run by the PORTET family, which has owned and harvested the estate for four generations. We apply the COUSINIE method for a generous nutritional intake whilst limiting the number of treatments. The soil is therefore more balanced and is better prepared to naturally repels attacks. Both vines and grapes benefit from these privileged conditions. Stripping and the green harvesting also enable us to control production and optimise the quality of wine which is matured in French oak barrels for 12 months. Château TAYAC wine is sold in Bordeaux stores, cellars, restaurants and is also directly exported.
