Lion des Aubrots

The vineyard:

This domain is situated in the Bordeaux region, on the right bank of the estuary, in the Côtes de Bourg area. The Bourg area overlooks the Gironde estuary with its corniche. On this land, vine-covered slopes stretch out, earning the region its name “mini Swiss Girondine”.

The soils’ diversity is perfectly suited to producing superior wines and the vines are ideally situated to make the most of the perfect alliance of soil and climate.

In Teuillac, the 28 hectares under the sole tenancy of the Château Grand Launay have been restructured since 1969. Today, all of the family property’s land is farmed organically.
