Château des Gravieres

Christophe Landry’s Château des Graviers, is in the commune of Arsac. The fifth generation of his family to work the vine in Margaux, Christophe took over operations at Graviers in 1995. He has gradually expanded from six hectares to the 18 hectares and converted fully to biodynamic viticulture. His rigorous approach to farming and his thoughtful, rather complex cellar regimen yield Margaux of intensely vivid, supple fruit supported by honest yet ultra-fine tannins and exquisitely etched minerality. The supreme elegance one reads about in textbooks yet so rarely encounters in more muscular versions of the appellation is on full display in Christophe’s wines.
