Castle of La Dauphine

Fronsac, ancestral wine region of the country carried by Cardinal Richelieu and his little nephew who made it the most prestigious wines of the kingdom.

The Château de La Dauphine also testifies to this royal past by its name: memory of the stay at the property, in the 18th century, of Marie-Josèphe de Saxe, wife of the Dauphin of Louis XV and mother of the last kings of France, including Louis XIV.

The Château de La Dauphine, nestled in an arch of the Dordogne, is located in the heart of a 70 ha Bio&Biodynamic vineyard.

A work philosophy emerges: don't give in to ease "the details make the quality but the quality is not a detail".
