Today, Mickael Garde and his sister Corinne are the fourth generation to manage this vineyard. Their parents passed admirable values on to us such as perseverance, sincerity, generosity, and above all a love and deep respect for the land. These values have guided them in their decisions, and have always led them to be open and curious.
Chateau Haut-Goujon’s terroir consists of gravelly-sandy soil on the Lalande de Pomerol’s side, and clay and gravel soil on the Montagne Saint-Emilion’s side. A natural and unusual characteristic in the subsoil, traces of iron oxide, gives to Chateau Haut-Goujon’s wines their unique character.
At Chateau Haut-Goujon, Merlot is the King variety, with 75% of the vineyard. Then come Cabernet Sauvignon (15%), Cabernet Franc (5%) and Malbec (5%). Year after year, they are combined in a beautiful blend giving elegance and complexity to the wine.

Smooth, round and complex, these wines are among the best wines in these appellations (Millesime 2016 : 94/100 Decanter). In additional, Mickael is the only vineyard in Bordeaux who is making special Cuvee with 80% Malbec. It’s delicious. Only 1500 bottles are producing every year !
