Chateau Malartic-Lagraviere Description
Located on a superb gravelly hilltop in Léognan, to the south of Bordeaux, Château Malartic-Lagravière is a Classified Growth of Graves that has produced fine red and white wines for several centuries. In the 18th century, it was owned by the illustrious Admiral Count Hippolyte Maurès de Malartic, who gave it his name. Only three families have since managed the property, the most recent being the Bonnies who arrived in 1997 and have raised it to the prestigious position it holds today. Particular attention is paid to the preservation of the 73-hectare estate’s ecosystem. The vineyard is managed according to agro-ecological principles with an emphasis on the preservation of biodiversity through minimal horse-drawn ploughing, plant cover and eco-pasture. The gravity-operated state-of-the-art winery, reception rooms, Château and grounds form a magnificent setting worthy of the quality of the wines. Château Malartic-Lagravière thus produces exceptional wines with respect for the environment and the terroir. These elegant wines are much appreciated for their unique expression.
