Château Malbat

Chateau-Malbat_logo.jpgIt all started in 1865 with an exceptional couple, Jacques and Françoise Rochet, who purchased some land  between the rivers Dordogne and Garonne, recognized for its exceptional terroir (formerly owned by the Benedictines of the medieval city of La Réole). The family built its name around 3 founding values: work, adaptability and openness to the world. 

Château Malbat is near the village of La Réole in the zone of Entre Deux Mers - literally "between two seas" which of course refers to the two rivers named above. Château Malbat consists of about 70 Hectares of family-owned vineyards, at more or less 120 m above sea level.

 It is thanks to this relatively high position, with calcarious and clay soils, that the wines have their fruity, expressive quality rather than the often thinly tannic wines too often found in the greater area. With good healthy fruit, the main enological challenge is not to mess it up. Therefore winemaking is simple and the result is pure and balanced.

Bordeaux has more Châteaux - wineries - than any other wine growing region in the world. The trick in the Entre Duex Mers in particular, with its enormous number of Châteaux, is to find the very best quality for the euro. We have worked with Château Malbat for many years now, and the wine never fails to please.
