Chateau Lamothe de Haux
Château Lamothe's foundations date back to the 16th century. Its renovation in the 19th century transformed the building into a charming residence whose facade is pictured on the label. Located in the commune of Haux, on top of a clay-limestone slope in the heart of the Bordeaux wine country, this estate has been devoted to winegrowing from the very beginning, and has belonged to the same family for four generations. The 80 hectares of vineyards, including those of neighbouring Château Manos, purchased in1991, are managed by Anne Néel and her children, Maria & Damien Chombart. "At Château Lamothe de Haux, we are committed to producing our wines with a view to sustainable viticulture," says Damien Chombart, and the estate put its money where its wines are. It has recently received a certification of High Environmental Value (HVE) from the French government in recognition of its efforts toward sustainable agriculture.
