Château d'Aiguilhe, on of the most beautiful vineyards in Castillon-Côtes de Bordeaux
Purchased by Stephan von Neipperg in late 1998, Château d’Aiguilhe is one of the finest and most beautiful vineyards in the Castillon-Côtes de Bordeaux appellation. Located back from the river, the château's dignified ruins bear witness to a long and turbulent history. Today, the estate covers 140 hectares, including 90 planted with vines. The vines grow exclusively on the plateau, where they benefit from south-facing sun exposure and excellent natural drainage.
Blanc d'Aiguilhe is a 100% Sauvignon Blanc produced at the estate since 2015.
