Ch. Reaut is located in the Côtes de Bordeaux appelation, and lies in a natural amphitheatre which provides a perfect aspect for the vines. This formally rundown property was snapped up a decade ago by a wealthy Champagne house who, having poured money into their new project, then sold up just as their investment was bearing fruit.

Now run by 12 enthusiastic amateurs with the help of a talented winemaker, Ch. Réaut is making benchmark Claret in a modern, polished style. 

In 2004, the vineyard was completely replanted with 5,500 vines per hectare, and in 2009 the first vintage was produced with fantastic results.
