Château D'Agassac

What Château D'Agassac does

Château D'Agassac is a privately held French wine estate operating under the Société civile agricole du Château d'Agassac, with its operational vineyard and chateau in Ludon-Médoc (Haut-Médoc appellation, Nouvelle-Aquitaine) and its registered office in Niort. It produces a portfolio of six labels: the flagship Château d'Agassac, Précision d'Agassac, L'Agassant d'Agassac, Château Pomiès-Agassac, Château Pomiès-Agassac Tête de Cuvée, and Le Rosé d'Agassac. Production is grounded in traditional Bordeaux winemaking with sustainable viticulture, certified under Haute Valeur Environnementale and Terra Vitis, and supported by Tonnellerie Nadalie oak barrels. The estate was elevated to Cru Bourgeois Exceptionnel in the 2020 classification and has accumulated multi-decade critical recognition (Robert Parker, Jane Anson, Decanter, Wine Spectator, Weinwisser).

The business operates a direct-to-consumer model, selling wine through its owned e-commerce boutique (bl-wines.com), private sales membership club, on-premise estate visits, and trade distribution via Agence des Grands Crus. Beyond wine, the estate runs an oenotourism division with interactive iPad treasure hunts, guided tours, themed tastings, and an on-site restaurant (La Table d'Agassac), and it hosts corporate seminars, conferences, weddings and private events. Customer segments span individual wine enthusiasts, corporate event organizers, and private event hosts, with tourism marketing partnerships across Bordeaux tourism boards and neighboring classified estates.
