Château Peyrabon

Château Peyrabon’s documented history reaches back to 1766, when the wine property appeared on Pierre de Belleyme’s map of the area around Saint-Sauveur. The Renaissance-style manor gained four towers in 1821 and still stands amid the vineyards on a gravelly ridge a few kilometres from Pauillac. The Castéja heirs acquired the estate in September 2022.

The vineyard lies in Saint-Sauveur-en-Médoc within Haut-Médoc, where sandy gravel over clay and a smaller clay-limestone sector shape the estate’s parcels. Four varieties shape the estate’s vineyards and blends: Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot have the leading roles; Cabernet Franc appears in smaller proportion, as does Petit Verdot. Ageing generally spans about fourteen months in French barrels, around one quarter of which are renewed annually.
