Château
Beau Site Haut Vignoble
The estate was founded in 1861, in the middle of the Second Empire. At that time, charcoal was transported by teams of oxen. It was with the money from these "charrois" that our ancestor slowly purchased the first plots of vines in the commune of Saint-Estèphe and built the château currently featured on the label.
Then in 1924, Pierre Braquessac, a wine broker, doubled the size. His son, René Braquessac, succeeded him in 1951; he was the founder of the Saint-Estèphe wine house.
Currently, Château Beau Site Haut Vignoble is managed by Jean Louis Braquessac and his son Pierre. The vineyards of Château Beau-Site Haut-Vignoble cover an area of 20 hectares. The particularity of the vineyard is that, having been acquired over the generations, it is divided into more than twenty plots scattered throughout the commune of Saint-Estèphe, making it very representative of the appellation.
Je voudrais savoir si votre vin est classé Cru Bourgeois , et si vous êtes un chateau independent de Chateau Beau Site.
Merci
Le Château Beau Site Haut Vignoble n'est pas Cru Bourgeois. Cette mention est généralement mentionnée sur l'étiquette de la bouteille.
Vous pouvez retrouver le classement complet des Crus Bourgeois du Médoc sur leur site internet.
Et en effet, cette propriété et le Château Beau-Site sont deux propriétés indépendantes.
Cordialement,
La Maison du Vin de Saint-Estèphe
