ONE WITH THE ENVIRONMENT

Château Pré la Lande has been in the business of winemaking since 1860. It’s found on a hill overlooking the Vallée de la Dordogne, in the designation called Sainte-Foy Bordeaux (renamed Sainte-Foy Côtes de Bordeaux in 2016), one of the oldest in Gironde.

A maker of Biodynamic wines, Château Pré la Lande uses organic agriculture, working their soils and protecting their vines with natural mixes (herbal teas, liquid manures, plants, etc). They follow lunar cycles and planet placements, letting the world around them guide their winemaking. As a result, their vines flourish in pure and beautiful harmony with its environment. The earth gives back what you give it, and at Château Pré la Lande, the earth gives back its best.
