CHÂTEAU LES AUBIERS

“Aubier” is a typical tree of the region surrounding the historic estate of our family. Most commonly, “aubier” means sapwood : the living part of a tree, right under the bark. It transports sap and protects the heartwood during winter. Château Les Aubiers is a loyal expression of the local history, of our landscape richness and of my sensitivity towards environmental issues. As a player of the envrionmental diversity of Blaye territory, wines of Château Les Aubiers translate into 3 different personalities: red, rosé and white.
