Château Le Thil

Château Le Thil, which had previously had no vineyards, regained its vineyard of about 20 hectares classified as A.O.C. Pessac-Léognan in 1990: "Château Le Thil Comte Clary." Located in the commune of Léognan, in the Bordeaux region, it was taken over in 2012 by Florence and Daniel Cathiard. Today, the vineyard comprises 12 hectares of vines, adjacent to the famous cru classé Smith Haut-Lafitte.

The Château Le Thil vineyard is situated on a clay-limestone and gravelly terroir ideal for the vines’ growth. The vineyard’s grape varieties consist of Sémillon and Sauvignon for the white wines, and predominantly Merlot supplemented with Cabernet Franc for the red wines. The harvest is traditionally carried out by hand. The wine of Château Le Thil is a perfect reflection of the high quality of the terroir of the Pessac-Léognan appellation.
