History and anecdotes
Located in Saint-Émilion, Château Beauséjour Duffau-Lagarrosse is an iconic Bordeaux estate whose first stones were laid at the end of the 11th and the beginning of the 12th century. This 6.8-hectare vineyard, rooted on a limestone plateau, produces elegant, distinguished, and complex wines made from Merlot and Cabernet Franc grape varieties. The château's signature is characterized by wines of great refinement and aging potential, a reflection of the passion and expertise of its current owners, Joséphine Duffau-Lagarrosse and Prisca Courtin.
