Château Mangot

 In 1954, Simone and Jean Petit ushered in a new chapter in the history of Château Mangot. Starting from scratch, their hard work and ambition enabled them to build up the 34-hectare vineyard, hectare by hectare, over the years. They also acquired Château La Brande in the Castillon Côtes de Bordeaux appellation.  

In 1989, Anne-Marie, the daughter of Jean and Simone, and her husband Jean-Guy Todeschin, recognizing Mangot’s potential, decided to explore and enhance its terroirs. It was time for a renewal: restructuring the vineyard, creating terraces, and constructing and renovating the buildings. Meanwhile, the Château Mangot vineyard was granted the Saint-Émilion Grand Cru appellation.

In 2008, Karl and Yann, the sons of Anne-Marie and Jean-Guy, joined them at the estate and brought a new energy to Mangot. Drawing on their education and experience in viticulture, and constantly seeking new approaches and challenging the status quo, they pushed technical boundaries, innovated, and created new wines. The vineyard has been fully certified organic since 2020 and is in the process of transitioning to biodynamic farming.

The creation and development of Mangot are rooted in a family and its values: enthusiasm, high standards, and respect.
