This wine is a knockout—offering incredible value at under $25, especially considering it's from the same owners behind the $1,000 Château Lafleur. It delivers outstanding quality at a fraction of the price. Easily one of the best Bordeaux steals in the shop!

Château Grand Village is a charming Bordeaux estate where the Guinaudeau family has been making wine since 1962. Nestled in the beautiful Fronsac region, this vineyard is the beloved home of the same family behind the legendary Château Lafleur in Pomerol.

The Guinaudeau family's wine journey began in 1872 with Château Lafleur. Jacques and Sylvie Guinaudeau took over in 1984, making it their own in 2001. Their wines, often praised by critics like Robert Parker, have a reputation for excellence. Their wine and commercial consultants are no other than ICONIC Christian Moueix (Dominus owner)

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.
