Château Lamothe de Haux

Château Lamothe de Haux is located in the town of Haux, on the right bank of the Garonne River southeast of Bordeaux. The vineyard spans 80 hectares of vines in theCôtes de Bordeaux, Cadillac, and Bordeaux appellations,onclay-limestone soils.Château Lamothe de Haux is a manor house whose foundations date back to the 16th century. Since 1956, four generations of the same family have managed the estate. Today, Anne Neel is at the helm, alongside her children Maria and Damien Chombart. Since 2017, Maria and Damien Chombart, owners of Château Lamothe de Haux, have sought to highlight the noble Bordeaux grape varieties—namely Sémillon, Merlot, and Cabernet—while breaking with traditional Bordeaux conventions. The château’s wine merchant division, “Les Vins choisis,” offers red and white Bordeaux under the Madame Étienne brand, in homage to the estate’s owner in the 1920s.
