CHÂTEAU HAUT BIGORD

Château Haut Bigord is an estate that has been in my family for three generations. Successive members of the family have put their hearts into developing and expanding it. I decided to take over from my parents officially in 2013 after my studies and three years abroad. I run the estate, which has been organic since I arrived, with great pride and dedication. The vineyard is a true mosaic of terroirs, as it is a reunion of my two grandfathers’ vines. That gives complexity to my wine.
