The history of this property starts in 1919 when Jean-Baptiste Arpin came back from the World War I and purchased a small vineyard in Pomerol. For three generations now, the Arpins have developed and improved the Chateau and since 1994 various qualitative improvements have been made. A small part of the production of the Chateau is devoted to the Cuvee Jean-Baptist. The grapes for this commemorative cuvee always come from the same 5 rows of vines that consistently produce superior quality fruit. The wine is made with the collaboration of Jean-Luc Thunevin.
The undisputed king of France's wine regions, Bordeaux sits amidst and astride the rivers Dordogne and Garonne. Accounting for some 800 million bottles produced each year, Bordeaux has built its reputation on quality, with some of the world's most sought-after wines being crafted along the river banks. Bordeaux also creates a large amount of table wine, mostly sourced from the lesser of Bordeaux's 57 appellations. Bordeaux boasts over 10,000 winemakers. Known mostly for the red blends, Bordeaux also enjoys notoriety for its excellent sweet white wines, as well as several high-quality dry whites created mostly in the central regions between the two rivers.
