About the producer
The château itself is an impressive stately house aggrandised by two fairy-tale towers on the fringes of the village ofSaint-Julien. Tracing its roots back to the 13th century, it has been under the stewardship of the Borie family since 1941 and most notably Bruno Borie since 2003, whose influence at the estate has seen quality here improve dramatically.
