Château Lagrézette

The history of Château Lagrézette, designated a historic monument in 1982, dates back to the 12th century. This 90-hectare estate has become a symbol of Cahors wines thanks to the investments made by Alain-Dominique Perrin, a businessman and art lover, since the 1980s. He replanted the Château Lagrézette vineyard with Malbec (which had previously been planted with hybrid vines), the region’s flagship grape variety, in order to restore the château’s wines to their former glory. The prestigious Dame Honneur cuvée is a tribute to Marguerite de Massaut, the first female owner of Château Lagrézette in the 16th century, a time when Cahors wine graced every royal table.
