Vieux Château Gaubert
(Winery in Southern Gironde)
Provides 1 wine tasting and winery visit from €10.00
Vieux Château Gaubert is a historic estate located in the heart of Portets, which was saved from demolition and preserved thanks to its classification as a French supplementary historic monument and its acquisition by Dominique Haverlan in 1988. The Gaubert family, prominent traders and shipbuilders in the 18th century, originally expanded the estate and transformed it into a significant vineyard.
In 2004, the Pessac-Léognan vineyard was created with the acquisition of Château Pontet Caillou, adjacent to Domaine de Chevalier. This was a joint venture between Dominique Haverlan and Francis Dumigron, aimed at developing a vineyard on a parcel damaged by a storm in 1999.
In 2010, Dominique Haverlan further expanded with the acquisition of Château Haut Pommarède, renovating both the property and the vineyard. By 2011, he took over the historic Château de la Brède, investing time and care into this storied vineyard.

Château La Tour Blanche
(Winery in Southern Gironde)
The figures who have shaped the destiny of La Tour Blanche are inextricably linked to its history. Each, in their own way, has contributed to making the estate one of the finest in Sauternes, by taking risks, by being imaginative, by challenging conventional thinking, and by investing. These “prospectors of gold” - a description which is very fitting for Sauternes - have created their philosopher stones in the form of... golden nuggets. Foremost among these: Monsieur de Saint-Marc, Lord of La Tour Blanche.
We could go much further back in time, but the original small chartreuse that became a château starts to get slightly lost among the various notarial deeds and other archives. But we need to start somewhere, and Monsieur de Saint-Marc, Lord of La Tour Blanche – who would give the domaine its name – is a good starting point. This was back in the mid-17th century. Saint-Marc was a clerk at the Court of the Parliament of Bordeaux. As he had considerable financial means at his disposal, he was able to transform the vineyards and its humble dwelling into a fine looking château, even having a tower built in order to justify the name!
