Description
A red wine from Pessac-Léognan, unveiled by Château Baret
The estate
Located in the Pessac-Léognan appellation, Château Baret boasts ancient origins. The foundations of the estate date back to the 4th century. For several generations, Château Baret belonged to the Lords of Baret. In 1867, the Ballande family of merchants and shipowners acquired the estate. Over the past twenty years, Château Baret has undergone major renovations and restructuring, both in the vineyard and in the winery. From vintage to vintage, following the arrival of a new team in 2015, this historic estate has stood out as one of the most beautiful references of the Pessac-Léognan appellation.
