The winemakers
The decision required careful consideration just 4 years after the deadly frosts of 1956 which had ravaged part of the vineyards. The vote was a secret one and the result was 13 in favour out of 13 votes, so a unanimous decision. These managers were good winemakers, but also not indifferent to arts and culture. So the Château and its estate did not fall into unknown hands or under the umbrella of a speculative group. Nowadays, this historic monument, open to the public, is managed by the children and grand-children of those winemakers, all striving to preserve the Château and make it accessible to as many people as possible.
