Château Tour des Gendres

Château Tour des Gendres was acquired by the De Conti family in 1925, and was transformed into a wine estate in the third generation, producing its first vintage in 1985. Today, Château Tour des Gendres covers 52 hectares of AOC Bergerac.

The family business, run by Luc De Conti, is divided into 3 distinct vineyards: Les Gendres, on clay-limestone and marl soils in Monbazillac, Le Grand Caillou, on clay-limestone and marl soils in Castillon, and Saint Julien d'Eymet, on clay-limestone and clay-silt soils on marl in Agenais. The vineyards have been farmed organically since 1994, and have been undergoing Agrocert-certified organic conversion since 2005. Finally, in 2000, Château Tour des Gendres set up a trading business in partnership with five neighboring estates sharing the same viticultural practices, producing Bergerac wines under the Château Tour des Gendres label. The vineyard is now run by Luc de Conti's children.
