FRANCE:
Chateau Canet
A traditional 19th century wine estate, Chateau Canet is today recognised as one of the leading domaines of the Minervois region in the heart of the Languedoc Roussillon. Today, all the original buildings are still in use although they have been significantly modernised. The old winery is fitted with state-of-the-art wine making equipment, allowing Canet to blend traditional ‘savoir-faire’ with modern day techniques. The stables are now used as the “aging cellar”, where the wines quietly mature until ready to be bottled and enjoyed.
Vignobles Ducourt
In 1858, the family ducourt made its home at Château des Combes, an estate with a few hectares of vines in Ladaux, a small country village south-west of Bordeaux. Over the years, their passion for wine became a professional vocation, and both the ‘savoir-faire’ and the vineyard were successively handed down and expanded.
Today, the Ducourt family possesses one of the largest independent vineyard holdings in the region : 440 hectares of vines, spread out over 13 châteaux in the Entre-Deux-Mers and Saint-Emilion appellations, which produce 2.5 million bottles per year.
Each generation has managed to adhere to the philosophy dictated by their elders : to get the best out of each ‘terroir’ through a combination of traditional and modern techniques to produce great wines which are both authentic and affordable.
