Description

Chateau Lilian Ladouys is located in St Estephe. The history of Lilian Ladouys can be traced back as far as 1654 when it was in ownership of Jacques de Bercoyan, a Bordeaux magistrate. By this time the estate was already known as La Doys. Lilian Ladouys suffered during the difficult inter-War years in the early 20th Century which saw the estate deteriorate until it was eventually sold of piecemeal. Today, under the directorship of Pierre Fougere who heads up the Société Chateau Lilian Ladouys, there has been massive investment and a marked improvment in the qualities of the wines. The 48 hectare estate is planted with 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 35% Merlot and 5% Cabernet Franc, with an average age of 30 years plus, spread over 90 different vineyard plots. After harvest, the fruit is fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats before being transferred to oak barrels (one third new each vintage) where it is aged for 18 months prior to fining, filtration and bottling. Annual production of 240,000 bottles.
