Chateau Le Crock, Saint-Estephe
Beautiful 19th-century chateau producing Grand Cru wines
Located in front of the Crock Marsh, in the Saint-Estephe area, this estate has been producing wine since the middle of the 18th century. Currently, their Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot grapes are used for two red wines.
The present buildings were built in the 19th century, and it was originally owned by a noble family, members of the Bordeaux parliament. In 1903 it was purchased by the Cuvelier family, wine merchants from the north of France, who made the estate what it is today.
Visitor comments
- "We were most charmingly entertained by Anne Cuvelier. Le Crock—the name apparently derives from croquet—is a much smaller operation than other chateau visits we made, so the tour doesn't take very long. This has the advantage that you get to the best bit quicker: the tasting." - Trip Advisor
