Château Haut-Goujon

We are located a few minutes from Libourne where we work our 18 hectare vineyard. The wines of Château Haut-Goujon are in the Lalande de Pomerol and Montagne Saint-Émilion appellations.

Located between the Dordogne and Isle rivers, the Haut-Goujon vineyard benefits from the influences of its terroir. The climate is humid, warm and sunny: everything you need to make great wines!

We work in a socially responsible manner and act so that the vines are treated as naturally as possible. We replace the use of phytosanitary products on the entire vineyard with an organic treatment programme. Biodiversity is maintained and developed in the vine rows.

Our story

Since 1912, the activity of Château Haut-Goujon has been developed by the Garde family. At the time, it was Elie who planted the first 6 hectares of Merlot that would make up the 18 hectares of the vineyard that we know today. Robert took over and matured two vintages that would mark the history of the estate: 1945 and 1947.

In the middle of the 20th century, Henri, in charge of the farm, suffered the great frosts of 1956 which destroyed the entire Haut-Goujon vineyard. With the help of his wife Liliane, he replanted the entire farm with patience and perseverance.

In the 1990s, their children, Corinne, Mickaël and Vincent, took over the reins of the business and began major work to modernize work tools, vine growing methods and renovations to the property's buildings.
