France / Bordeaux / Côtes de Castillon
When Jacques Thienpont, owner of Château Le Pin Pomerol and L'If St. Emilion, visited this estate during the 2015 vintage, he was immediately struck by the great location at the end of the limestone plateau east of Saint-Émilion. A Belgian couple, Stéphane and Béatrice Goubau, had owned the winery for a decade and converted to organic viticulture. Jacques Thienpont acquired the winery from them before the 2015 vintage was bottled. It includes ten hectares of vineyards surrounded by woods and pastures; a varied biotope on the plateau of Saint Philippe d'Aiguilhe, the highest point in the Bordeaux region.
