The Chateau de La Brède was built in the 13th century in Gothic style about one kilometer west of La Brède.
Probably the best known owner of the chateau is Baron Charles-Louis de Secondant, born in 1689, who in 1716 inherited from his uncle the office of President of Parliament, whose fortune and name were Montesquieu.
Living on the chateau, the state philosopher, sociologist and writer Montesquieu wrote most of his writings, including The Book of the "Spirit of the Laws" in 1731.
UNESCO declared the chateau a World Heritage Site in 1951, and in 2004, after the death of its last descendant, it was converted into a foundation.
In 2011, the owner of the Vieux Chateau Gaubert, Dominique Haverlan, took over the Chateau de La Brède.
The red wine of Chateau de La Brède is a blend of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon and 40% Merlot.
Maceration, alcoholic fermentation and storage for about 18 months takes place in wooden barrels.
Aroma: The bouquet offers a wealth of sweet, ripe fruit flavors
Taste: ripe fruits, especially black currants, elderberry and vanilla - multi-layered structure with length and sustainability
Finish: ripe tannins, clear, fruity notes and elegant wood tones
