Situated in the commune of Martillac, this 20-hectares property once belonged to Baron de Montesquieu.
Today, the estate is owned by Mr. Eric Perrin who set up a vast land clearing and plantation programme in the 1980s, rejuvenating this vineyard from the ground up.
The Perrin family also owns the famous Château Carbonnieux.
