CHÂTEAU D'ARCHE
Was created in 1580 by Henry d'Arche, dean of the city of Bordeaux. At the time, his wines were already some of the most famous Sauternes. During the 1789 Revolution, the Château was taken over by the state and it was another two centuries before the estate was reunified. Château d'Arche joined the Grand Cru Classé classification of 1855. The range of wines consists of the production of the Sauternes grand cru classé and its second wine called Le Prieuré d'Arche, Perle d'Arche and Soleil d'Arche. A dry white wine is also produced in small quantities as well as a crémant d'Arche which was launched in 2016 on the market. In addition to the 53 hectares AOC Sauternes, Château d'Arche has 2,2 hectares in AOC Grave which allow the production of red wine.

In 1996 Château d'Arche was sold and it was in that year that he took over the management of the property, bringing all his experience acquired over the years. This terroir of Sauternes has become a real passion and as he likes to say, a great wine is made above all in the vineyard. Even today, he oversees the complete process of the wines from Château d'Arche, vines, aging in cellars, from blending to bottling.
