Château Les Justices
Château Les Justices is owned by an illustrious Sauternes family from the Bordeaux region. René Médeville is credited with having established himself as a great Sauternes craftsman, practicing the long-lasting ageing techniques for which Château Les Justices is renowned today. He was succeeded in 1959 by his son Christian, who further developed the ageing techniques for the famous old vintages, with great success. He expanded his estates to include Château Respide-Médeville, and soon established himself not only as an eminent vineyard technician, but also as an aesthete of the singular Sauternes wine.

Christian Médeville passionately looks after the 3 estates: Château Les Justices, Château Gilette and Château Respide-Médeville, and his efforts bear fruit. In 2004, his daughter Julie took up the torch with her husband, Xavier Gonet, an oenologist from a very old family of Champagne growers on the Côte des Blancs. Gonet-Médeville Champagnes was born in 2000 from a 7.5-hectare vineyard of Premiers and Grands Crus, and continues the family's winegrowing adventure with passion.

"Very intense, with an emphasis on structure. Good aromatic development. Long, warm, minty aftertaste". (Le Guide Bettane & Desseauve des Vins de France). A gourmet Sauternes, with a very pleasant nose, powerful and complex, full and round on the palate, and a wonderfully long finish...
