Château la garde fine wine

Château La Garde

Red

Vintages from 2014 to 2022

20 hectares of vines nestling at the heart of a mosaic of soils are devoted to Château La Garde red – compared to 40ha in the past – representing the estate’s most complex, distinctive and expressive vineyard blocks.

With its unique character, the blend showcases Cabernet Sauvignon and the sumptuous gravel plateau. Of great finesse, Château La Garde reveals velvety tannins, a lovely fleshy mid-palate, aromas that are equally fresh and intense, and a long, precise finish.

Pierre Estorge

Agricultural engineer and qualified oenologist, Pierre has managed the estate for 11 years.

Joining the estate at the time of the very challenging 2013 vintage, he brought with him a fresh approach of great precision.

Supported in the vineyard by Ludovic Maury and in the winery, Guillaume Rousseau, Pierre drives the new vision of Château La Garde on a daily basis.

White

Vintages from 2019 to 2023

Made only in limited quantity, Château La Garde white is produced from only 2 hectares of vines on the estate. It draws its specific identity from a deep limestone vein which imparts exceptional purity to the Sauvignon Blanc.

A fresh, chiselled wine with a distinctive mineral character, supported by great length. Semillon adds the perfect finishing touch to the blend, bringing generosity and balance.

Vintages from 2018 to 2022

Château La Garde’s second wine, produced on 25 hectares, draws all the benefits of a more diverse terroir. Blocks of vines devoted to this wine are clearly identified and reserved exclusively for this purpose. Importantly, work in the vines is implemented with the same level of care and attention as the rest of the estate.

A fruity wine to be enjoyed young. Supple and elegant, it offers remarkable balance of concentration and suppleness.

An easy-drinking, elegant and charming wine focusing on freshness and fruit, to be enjoyed immediately.

A new aesthetic

To further its pursuit of excellence, in 2023 Château La Garde unveiled a new packaging concept to reflect its identity.

On the label, a green background is a nod to the magnificent, verdant Château setting, and is the backdrop to an illustration depicting the two wineries to reflect the estate’s rich liquid history. The former winery, dating back to 1881, represents tradition and ancestral know-how. By its side, the new winery, constructed 140 years later, epitomises the Chateau’s far-reaching ambition and modernity.

Much more than just a new label, for Château La Garde the new visual identity marks a step change, and the start of a new chapter for the estate.
