Château d’Hanteillan

Château d’Hanteillan is a family estate next to the Saint-Estèphe appellation. With the limestone massif of Saint-Estèphe to the north and the clay gravel of Pauillac to the south, this single 80-hectare vineyard extends over two valleys of chiselled topography with distinct soils, different exposures and four grape varieties – a diversity that translates to complexity and gustatory richness in their wines. The philosophy here deliberately limits human intervention during vinification and maturation in order to best express the terroir through the grapes. Since 2012, the vineyard has undergone a complete overhaul, promoting quality and upgrading wine ranges to create the very best Cru Bourgeois, while preparing the estate for the next generation of winemakers.
