Welcome to Barton & Guestier
The Château was built in the beginning of the 18th century. The orignal plan was inspired by that of a Gallo-Roman villa. The most famous owner was probably Charles Jean-Baptiste Mercier Dupaty, who bought the Château in 1776. He was the president of the Bordeaux Parliament. The Dupaty family owned the property until 1841.
It’s in 1969 that Barton and Guestier bought the Château and 10 years later in 1979 the vineyards.
