Château de Piote

Located in the heart of the Bordeaux region, Château de Piote is a 14-hectare estate, 10 of which are dedicated to viticulture. The estate is located in Val-de-Virvée, about 20 km north of Bordeaux. Here, the Aubrion family cultivates the vines using organic and biodynamic methods, with deep respect for nature and its cycles. The story of Château de Piote began in 1998, when Virginie Aubrion and her family decided to transform a ruined farm and the surrounding land into a flourishing vineyard. With determination and passion, Virginie has taken on the role of winemaker, while her son Corentin and other members of the family contribute to the day-to-day running of the estate. The company grows eight different varieties, including Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Malbec, Petit Verdot, as well as Sémillon and Colombard. The Château's production philosophy is based on sustainable and environmentally friendly practices. The harvest is carried out entirely by hand, guaranteeing an accurate selection of the grapes. Fermentation takes place using indigenous yeasts, without the addition of sulphites, and the wines are aged in concrete and stainless steel vats, and terracotta and stoneware amphorae.
