Château Lassègue: a Grand Cru Classé born of a transatlantic encounter.
The history of Château Lassègue is above all that of the alliance between, on the one hand Jess Jackson and Barbara Banke, two visionaries; and on the other hand Pierre Seillan, French winegrower and winemaker. A story of families passionate about wine who succumbed, in 2003, to the charm and assets of this beautiful property in the Saint-Emilion Grand Cru appellation.
Upon their arrival, the two families launched a geological study of the whole vineyard. It revealed an exceptional diversity of terroirs spread over 36 hectares, which encouraged them to push the boundaries of a “parcellaire” approach, and adopt a "micro-crus" philosophy, inspired by Burgundy. High standards and precision drive every action here, from the construction of a winemaking tool to the selection for the barrels of the best wood from the French stave mill, owned by Jess Jackson. An unparalleled meticulousness, which makes it possible to extract the essence of each soil and to give the wine of Château Lassègue its entire dimension.
In 2022, Château Lassègue became a Grand Cru Classé of Saint-Emilion.
