Château Valade - (France)

Château Valade logo

Paul and Lorette Valade have managed this family-owned estate founded in 1878 for more than thirty years. Originally located in the Castillon-Côtes de Bordeaux area with Château Brisson and Château Le Peyrat, the estate was extended to St Emilion in 2007, same year in which they were joined by their son, Cédric. The latter then created Château Valade, an impetuous Grand Cru from St Emilion. On every château, everything is done to ensure an impeccable quality. The family members perform all the tasks. The know-how passed on through generations of winemakers, added to long days of work in the vineyards and a lot of rigor applied to every task, enable them to offer their outstanding Châteaux from St Emilion Grand Cru and Castillon-Côtes de Bordeaux
