Rated estate (2019 guide) 1*Star (Up-and-coming stars or quality winemakers producing good-quality wines; you won't be disappointed when tasting the wines from these estates)
About the estate:
This estate enjoys unique success in the Côtes de Bordeaux region, which has remained consistent over the years. In addition to its own vineyards, it also leases land and nearly 100 hectares are vinified under the Château d'Aiguilhe label. This is one of the few brands on the right bank that stands out for its substantial volumes and can boast of competing with some Médoc and Graves wines. This success is due to the expertise of the duo formed by Stephan von Neipperg and Stéphane Derenoncourt (also owner of Domaine de L'A in the same appellation), who also excel at Château Canon-La-Gaffelière, Clos de L'Oratoire and La Mondotte in Saint-Émilion, the other properties of the von Neipperg family.
