Chateau D’Agassac

Château d’Agassac was a very ancient seigneury. According to local tradition, an inscription found in the underground passageways of Château d’Agassac dates its construction to the 11th century. In 1580, the estate passed into the hands of a large parliamentary family, the Pomiès, who held it until the French Revolution.

Recently renovated, Château d’Agassac still retains the vestiges of its past, with its ancient 14th-century walls flanked by more recent towers. Château d’Agassac is one of the most picturesque residences in the Haut-Médoc. The 42-hectare vineyard consists of two enclosures, each located on its own gravelly hillside in the southern part of Ludon. An experienced and dynamic team is in charge of extracting the quintessence of this exceptional terroir and of these old, high-potential vines, to produce an AOC Haut-Médoc Cru Bourgeois of great renown, according to the principles of sustainable agriculture.
