About the estate:

In 1858, the Ducourt family settled at Château des Combes in Ladaux, a small village southeast of Bordeaux. Under the leadership of Henri Ducourt, who took over in 1951 and was later succeeded by his children and grandchildren, the family vineyard flourished, growing to its current size of 450 hectares spread across 13 châteaux in the Entre-deux-Mers and Saint-Émilion regions. The estate has been managed by Philippe Ducourt since 1980.
