Jean-Guy Gregoire, an owner of various clothing and fashion shops in the region, purchased the vineyard in 1999 to appoint his son, Etienne, as technical director, who at 22 had recently graduated with a viticulture-oenology degree. This ‘young gun’ initially encountered some prejudices among the Bordelais due to his age and his lack
of family wine heritage. However, afterproducing some exceptional wines, he has won them round and is now known as “the wine rocker”!
