History and anecdotes
In 1853, the Baron Nathaniel de Rothschild, who was eager to serve his own wine to his guests, bought the Château Brane-Mouton at auction; the estate that will carry his name. In 1924, his great-grandson, the Baron Philippe de Rothschild, developed the bottling at the château. Indeed, wine was before delivered in barrels to wine merchants. In 1973, the château was promoted and classified as Premier Grand Cru in the 1855 classification.
