Château de Fargues is an atypical Bordeaux estate. This property has belonged to the Lur Saluces family since 1472. The château’s thick walls were built in 1306 by Cardinal Raymond Guilhem de Fargues, a nephew of Clément V and bear witness to the power and influence of this ancient barony. The Lur Saluces family indeed owned several estates such as châteaus Coutet, Filhot, Malle ou Yquem.
Château de Fargues vineyard covers 15 hectares out of 150. Woods, ponds, meadows and a breeding area share the remaining part of the estate. A rich and complementary ecosystem is preserved as it is conducive to the development of top-quality grapes.
Based on a 500-years-old know-how, harvest is extremely selective with a maximum yield of 8hl/ha. Only botrytised grapes with 20° natural potential alcohol potential are picked. This very expensive choice is rewarded by a very long ageing potential and an exceptional resistance to extreme temperatures and humidity. The must ferments in barrels that are replaced annually. The different wines then age for three years and are regularly racked and topped up. Château de Fargues is a great wine with an extreme subtility.
