Château de Respide

Château de Respide is a wine estate in the Graves region featuring classical architecture designed by architect Armand Corcelles, with stone walls and balanced window arrangements. The property includes both the historic buildings and vineyards that form the typical appearance of a French wine estate.

The estate was established in 1630, making it one of the oldest documented wine-producing properties in the region. Its reputation was solidified in 1850 when it was included in the Féret wine guide, an important reference work of that era.

The estate is deeply rooted in the local wine traditions of the Graves region, reflecting practices passed down through generations of winemakers. Visitors can observe the craft-oriented approach to wine production that continues to define life here.

Visitors can tour the estate and learn about wine production, with the Châtin family offering visits by arrangement. Wine tastings and bottle purchases are available, and direct sales channels allow you to buy after your visit.

French artist Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec had family connections to the estate and particularly appreciated its white wines. This artistic link gives the place an interesting cultural connection to 19th-century French art history.
