About Château Lassègue

Château Lassègue is a prestigious winery located in the Saint-Émilion appellation, one of the most renowned wine regions of Bordeaux, France. The château is known for producing elegant, expressive wines that reflect the unique characteristics of the Saint-Émilion terroir. Château Lassègue has a long and rich history dating back to the 18th century.

Together with his family, he revived Château Lassègue and brought the quality of the wines to new heights.

Vineyards

The vineyards of Château Lassègue cover approximately 24 hectares and are ideally located on the slopes of the Côte de Saint-Émilion. The vineyards are planted with traditional Bordeaux grape varieties:

• Merlot (about 60%)
