About the domain :
In 1858, the Ducourt family settled at Château des Combes in Ladaux, a small village south-east of Bordeaux. It was under the impetus of Henri Ducourt, who settled there in 1951 and has since been succeeded by his children and grandchildren, that the family vineyard expanded to its current 450 ha, spread over 13 châteaux in the Entre-deux-Mers and Saint-Émilionnais regions. Philippe Ducourt has been at the helm since 1980.
