Château Magnol serves as the company’s headquarters, estate, and showcase vineyard. This 30-hectare vineyard was established as the center of operations in 1979. Immediately after acquisition, the company began restoring the vineyards and cellars, and in 1987, as a result of intensive work, the Château Magnol vineyard was classified as a Cru Bourgeois. The soil is composed of gravel and sand, and the microclimate is shaped by the nearby Atlantic Ocean and Gironde estuary. Today, the vineyard is planted with Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Cabernet Franc grapes.
The 18th-century estate complex, together with the surrounding vineyard, is located in the prestigious Haut-Médoc region in southwestern France, near Bordeaux. A team of 40 people works there. In addition, Château Magnol houses a renowned guesthouse and an excellent wine education center.
