[Chateau leading the way in organic Bordeaux]
Château Couronneau is a historic chateau that survived the Hundred Years' War, a battle between England and France in the 5th century.
The chateau, surrounded by a moat and boasting eight towers, dates back to 1620. Christophe Pierre, who pays close attention to every step of the process, from tending the vineyards to bottling, shares information with young owners in the region and continues to work diligently to improve the wine.
He is also a spokesperson for the new trend of emphasizing the identity of the chateau, and is always striving to create attractive wines. He is also a winemaker who "strives for the future," taking advantage of the blessed natural conditions and cultivating organically to leave the environment for future generations.
In addition, Christophe Pierre was named "Wine Grower of the Year," the highest honor given to Bordeaux producers, by Cuisine & Vin magazine, and the wine has received rave reviews from Revue du Vin de France, who said, "You could drink it every day and never get tired of it."
