Château Monconseil-Gazin

Best Of Wine Tourism, Vigneron Indépendant, Vignobles et découvertes

The Château belongs to the Baudet family, over five generations since 1894. It is situated by Plassac, near Blaye, renowned for its UNESCO World Heritage site: the Citadelle. The 24-hectares estate’s clay-limestone soils have been nurturing vines since Roman times. The wines – from Merlot, Malbec and Cabernet grapes – are appreciated the world over for their elegance, aromatics and complexity. A pioneer of environmentally friendly viticulture, J-M Baudet oversees every detail of his estate’s production from grape to glass with rigour and passion. The wines, with a finely-tuned ageing in French oak barrels, are authentic yet modern; as much for pleasure as for the table; recognized and awarded by international judges and peers. Françoise and Jean-Michel will welcome you for either a complete visit or a simple tasting, as you prefer. We kindly request visitors to call in advance.
