FAMILLE CASTEL

Château Ferrande is located in the commune of Castres-Gironde, in the heart of the Graves appellation. The estate is a beautiful manor house restored in the late XIX century.

A STORY

In a few words

The known presence of Romans in the commune as early as the 1st century B.C. makes it more than likely that wine was produced there at a very early date. Château Ferrande has been managed by several important figures over the centuries.

 

The estate was owned by Admiral Delnaud before it was acquired by the Castel family in 1992, after sixteen years of being operated on a contractual basis.

 

The wines’ unique style, combined with a never-ending quest for quality, enabled Château Ferrande to develop an international reputation and enter into the exclusive Union des Grands Crus circle.
