The Producer

About Haut Lavigne

In 2002, Nadia Lusseau embarked on her journey as a winemaker by establishing Château Haut Lavigne, seizing control of 8.5 hectares of vineyards nestled in the Cotes de Duras. Within this expanse, 4 hectares are dedicated to Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon, while the remaining 4.5 hectares nurture Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Cabernet Sauvignon. Situated approximately 100 kilometers from the Atlantic, the vineyard benefits from the invigorating ocean breeze, coupled with reduced rainfall and increased sunshine compared to neighboring appellations. Nadia's meticulous viticultural practices yield exceptional fruit, while her winemaking ethos embraces the essence of terroir, allowing it to shine through in every bottle.
