Château de Cranne

Château de Cranne: An Organic Wine Estate in the Heart of Bordeaux

A Family Estate Rooted in History and Nature. Since 1856, Château de Cranne has told the story of a family passionate about vines and wine. Located in Donzac, just 40 minutes from Bordeaux, this family-run estate spans 42 hectares, including 33 hectares of vineyards farmed under organic agriculture since 2009. Led by Vincent Lacoste, the sixth generation of winemakers, the estate crafts distinctive organic wines born from diverse terroirs and a deep artistic sensibility.

Organic Wines Shaped by Emotion and Creativity

Curious and open to the world, Vincent Lacoste approaches each wine as a personal experience. Every cuvée conveys an emotion, a meeting, a story.

A Family Tradition in the Service of Innovation

Since taking over in 2005, Vincent Lacoste has energized the estate. Observation, respect for terroir, and innovation guide every decision. The artisanal waxing machine used for bottle closures symbolizes this quest for quality and authenticity — a savoir-faire both inherited and modernized.
