2021 Chateau Grand Village Bordeaux Blanc

Château Grand Village is the Guinaudeau family’s home estate in Mouillac, just north of Fronsac. If the name sounds familiar, it’s because the same family crafts one of Bordeaux’s most coveted and expensive wines: Château Lafleur in Pomerol, where bottles trade at $1,000+.

Grand Village delivers that same meticulous attention — low yields, hand-harvesting, ruthless sorting — at a fraction of the price.

The vineyards here rest on clay-limestone soils rich in asteria limestone, planted to classic Right Bank varieties. The Guinaudeaus’ obsession with detail shows in every step: precision canopy management, parcel-by-parcel vinification, and élevage in French oak barrels that balance purity with structure.

In 2002, Jacques and Sylvie’s son Baptiste and his partner Julie joined the team, bringing fresh ideas and passion. Together, they've raised the bar at Grand Village, treating it with the same care as Château Lafleur.

If you want to experience the Guinaudeau family's winemaking brilliance without the high price tag of Château Lafleur, Grand Village is your go-to. This wine punches well above its weight, offering an exciting taste of Bordeaux’s Right Bank.
