This 95-hectares vineyard is located in the estuary of the river Gironde. They produce two red wines: Château Montrose and Dame de Montrose
Château de Calon was the property of the famous Alexandre de Ségur, but in 1778 he gave it to the family Dumoulin, who planted vines in 1815. In 1855, the wines were classified Deuxième Cru in the official classification
Since the acquisition of Montrose in 2006, Martin and Olivier Bouygues have launched an extensive renovation of the site with environmental objectives. The brothers intend to make Montrose a model and showcase for new technologies for sustainable development.
