It’s in 1998 that our four musketeers acquire Château Haut Beyzac in the Haut-Médoc appellation. With their skills, their motivation, and above all, their passion for the world of wine, they strive to gain a strong reputation at international levels through continued regularity in work ethic and impeccable quality. Their commitment to the winemaking profession has awarded them more than 100 medals over 25 years, and has them featured in numerous press articles each year.
