The history of Ch\u00e2teau d’Argan<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n
<\/div>
\n
<\/div>\n

Ch\u00e2teau d\u2019Argan, which dominates the township of Saint-Germain-d\u2019Esteuil, offers the most romantic exceptional sunrise on the Reysson swamp.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The main building used nowadays as the winery, was once a port before the draining of the wetland. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Indeed, the Medoc was entirely composed of islands, without roads, where the rides were made by small boats.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n

Besides, some visitors still come to seek some coins from the Gallo-Roman period, because of the proximity to the archeological location of Brion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Claimed in Medoc appellation, the Ch\u00e2teau was integrated to the official classification \u201cCrus Bourgeois du M\u00e9doc\u201d in 1932.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n

The name of this distinction came from the bourgeois who were the inhabitants of the \u201cvillage\u201d of Bordeaux and who became the owners of the best lands of the region. The name of \u201cCru des Bourgeois\u201d was given, then \u201cCru Bourgeois\u201d. The classification corresponds to the history of the Ch\u00e2teau which was bought by the Verthamont family during this virtuous period, in the middle of the 18th century.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since 2009, all the vintages of Ch\u00e2teau d\u2019Argan have been recognized as Cru Bourgeois and certified HVE from the 2018 vintage.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/section>\n\n\n\n
