CHÂTEAU LAFAURIE-PEYRAGUEY

The château's first owner was Raymond Peyraguey. However, it was Lafaurie who made this Sauternes white wine famous. In 1984, the GDF-Suez group became the owner of Château Lafaurie-Peyraguey. This Sauternes wine estate is located in Gironde. This Sauternes appellation has been a Premier Grand Cru of Bordeaux wines since 1855. In 2014, Silvio Denz acquired Château Lafaurie-Peyraguey. The latter also owns two Saint-Émilion Grands Crus classés. Silvio Denz respects the traditions of Peyraguey and Lafaurie. Harvesting for this Sauternes wine is done by hand, with seven passes, for rigorous grape selection.
