A Bit of History

Located along the Way of St. James, the Graves region has long contributed to the worldwide renown of Bordeaux’s great wines. It is even said that Emperor Charlemagne once stayed in La Brède on his return from Roncesvalles...

Fertile Land

La Brède, a place of distinction, is centered around the poetic Château de Montesquieu and its famous library.
Its soils are generally gravelly, sandy, or clay-limestone, while neighboring Saint-Selve offers more siliceous and clay-rich terrain.
The wines of Château d’Arguin and Domaine du Reys are born from these exceptional terroirs.
The Graves and its vineyards benefit from a beautifully balanced mix of grape varieties (Sémillon – Sauvignon Blanc / Merlot – Cabernet Sauvignon) and enjoy superb sun exposure, now extending over 13 hectares.
