Chateau La Fleur Fompeyre, Castillon, AOC Côtes de Bordeaux, Red

Chateau la Fleur Fompeyre has a rich history and dates back to the 18th century, but it was only in the mid-1980s when the Myshkin family decided to purchase the property and began producing wine under the Château la Fleur Fompeyre label. The 20-hectare vineyard is located on a hilltop in Castillon-la-Bataille, on gravel and sandy soils. The vineyard produces a range of award-winning wines, using traditional winemaking techniques and prides itself on producing wines with depth, complexity, and elegance.
