Château d'Etroyes

Since 1720, the Protheau family has owned Château d’Etroyes, located in the heart of Mercurey. Initially a mixed-farming operation, the estate began focusing on viticulture in 1905, when François Protheau expanded into wine production and sales. From that point on, Château d’Etroyes has continued to grow and evolve, focusing increasingly on winemaking. In 1996, the next generation took the reins of the estate and decided to discontinue the wine merchant business to devote themselves exclusively to family-run production.

The vineyard spans more than 50 hectares between Mercurey and Rully, including 10 hectares of Premier Cru spread across 5 climats. Since 2002, Château d’Etroyes has been committed to sustainable viticulture in line with its belief in greater respect for the environment and traditions. The estate offers a very wide range of Côte Chalonnaise appellations that showcase the diversity of Château d’Etroyes’s vineyards.
