- Created in 1930, Château Grand Destieu is located in the southern part of the Jurisdiction of Saint-Émilion, more than a thousand years old and listed as a world heritage site by UNESCO.
  The vineyard extends over 5ha, in sandy and gravelly soils. It is made up of particularly tasty old vines with grape varieties predominantly Merlot and to a lesser extent Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon.
  After five years of expansion of the vineyard and modernization of the cellars, the estate is now managed by Bernard Debacque and his collaborators selected from among the best experts: cellar master, oenologist, environmental advisor.
  A family business on a human scale oriented towards a high level of wine quality and committed to HVE-3 environmental certification aimed at limiting inputs as much as possible and guaranteeing a healthy product.
  Sold exclusively in bottle, Château Grand Destieu, AOC Saint-Émilion Grand Cru is our high-end flagship product, vinified and aged for 2 years in French oak tuns and barrels.
  Having as its sole objective the culture of excellence and the satisfaction of its customers, Château Grand Destieu is recognized as one of the beautiful nuggets of the great wines of Saint-Émilion.

I visited Chateau Grand Destieu in Jun 2024. I went with my wife. I met the owner (Bernard Debacque), who gave us a tour of his facility and explained how his top rated wine (he has received several top quality awards) is made. He was very friendly and knowledgeable. He walked us thru the step by step process of wine making and we finished the visit with a wine tasting. He showed us how to pour the wine, how to smell it, what to look for in the colors and ultimately how to taste it. We bought an amazing 2019 red wine that can continue to age for 10-20 years. We had a very enjoyable experience and continue to grow our interest in wine. The winery is located in the prestigious wine making region of Saint Emillion. The drive to Chateau Grand Destieu is very beautiful – across many grape fields and other Chateaus. I strongly recommend you consider a visit to Chateau Grand Destieu and connect with Bernard and his passion for wine making.

We had a wonderful morning with Bernard who was very welcoming and inciteful in his explanation of his wine making processes. Thankyou for the amazing tasting experience and effort to use english for us four Australians. The Grand Cru was superb and we will enjoy it during our travels and back in Australia.

Supper good The owner was passionate about his business , although his English wasn’t good he wanted to give all the information. A new chateau not a traditional one . I enjoyed the visit and would definitely think of revisiting.
