On the right bank of the majestic Gironde estuary, Château de Barbe's vineyards stretch across 66 hectares, from the hillsides down to the river. Dating back to the 14th century, the estate has belonged to the Richard family since 1993. The quality of the terroir and the winemaking expertise allow the wines to reveal their fruitiness, body, and elegance, which regularly receive awards. The Bordeaux Supérieur is cultivated on vines located along the banks of the Gironde, on alluvial soils that impart freshness and smoothness.
