About this winery

Château La Gravette Lacombe was cited by Cocks and Feret from the first edition in 1850, then as cru bourgeois in 1893 and 1908. The frost of 1956 got the better of the few arpents of vines that remained after the war. With courage and passion, Marcel Andron undertook new plantings on this beautiful fine gravel soil. Today, the castle benefits from all the technology and know-how of Vignobles Lacombe.
