The Producer

Château Pierbone

Chateau Peyrabon has a history that dates back to the mid to late 1700’s. The chateau was built in 1766. The wine of Chateau Peyrabon had become popular enough that by the late 1800’s, the wines were priced at the same level as some of the 1855 Classified Growths.

The modern era for Chateau Peyrabon begins in 1998, when the property was sold by Jacques Babeau to Patrick Bernard. Under his stewardship, Chateau Peyrabon has increased in size and improved in quality. He spent more than 2 Million Euros to improve the estate. Some of the improvements to Chateau Peyrabon include the replanting of 11 hectares of vines. Trees were cut down to increase the air circulation for the vines and a new drainage system was installed. There was also a modernization of the cellars, wine making facilities and chateau.

The property is now composed of 52 hectares in production: Château Peyrabon is from the 45 hectares located in the Haut Médoc appellation. The remaining 7 hectares are in the Pauillac appellation and are used for the production of Château La Fleur Peyrabon. Part of the additional 2 hectares acquired in the fall of 2005 and ideally located between Château Lafite-Rothschild and Château Mouton-Rothschild.

As in the majority of the vineyards on the left bank, Cabernet Sauvignon is the dominant vine. The grape variety of the AOC Pauillac is 68% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Merlot and 7% Petit Verdot; Peyrabon 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 35% Merlot, 3% Cabernet Franc and 2% Petit Verdot.On average, the vines are close to 25 years of age. Harvest The vines are picked using a combination of mechanical harvesters and manual pickers.
