Historia

THE PROUD HISTORY OF A PREMIER GRAND CRU CLASSÉ
A very old wine-producing property of 36 hectares, Château Lafaurie-Peyraguey is located in the heart of the Sauternes region, on high ground just outside the village of Bommes.

Maisons Rouges (part of Lafaurie-Peyraguey) was a Roman staging post, and the oldest stones of the perimeter wall and the entrance, thought to be the most ancient structure in the commune of Bommes, date from the 13th century. The wealth of relics and archive material preserved at the château bear witness to the rich heritage of Château Lafaurie-Peyraguey: eight centuries of history preserved!

1796: Pierre Lafaurie turned the property into a “cru”, by investing in the wine’s quality.
1837: Pierre Lafaurie’s eldest son ensured the cru’s survival with its classification in 1855.
1865: Count Duchâtel purchased Château Lafaurie-Peyraguey, renovating and modernizing it.
1879: Farinel and Grédy, two Bordeaux wine merchants acquired the estate.

Viiniviljelykset

At the heart of the great terroirs of theSauternes region, Lafaurie-Peyraguey’s vineyard is located on the terrace of Sauternes gravel, 70 metres above sea level, just next to Château d’Yquem. The “Enclos” and “Maisons Rouges” plots represent the historic heart of Château Lafaurie-Peyraguey’s magnificent terroir, consisting of gravel from the Quaternary era which was deposited here more than 600,000 years ago, on a substratum of Aquitania limestone.

Silvio Denz’s objective is to produce very fine wines from the best terroirs. Château Lafaurie-Peyraguey will be made from the vines of the great historic 1855 terroirs in order to enhance its quality.
