Château Noaillac

Located on a very fine gravel rise in the Médoc, Château Noaillac enjoys a privileged situation.
Indeed, its proximity to the estuary and the Ocean gives it a particularly temperate climate. The soil and the mildness of the temperature give a very structured wine, close to the fruit, full of finesse, with excellent tannins.
Vines have long been cultivated here. In 1460, the lordship of Loirac belonged to Dame Jeanne de Commessac. It was in 1633 that the Duc d’Épernon (Lord of Lesparre) acquired it. Sieur Jean Goudineau inherited it, and in 1787 he gave it to his son Michel, adding a windmill that adjoined it. Étienne succeeded him, then Pierre in 1810, then Marguerite in 1855. The latter married Guillaume Cruon, who died in 1911. Having no heirs, his wife Marguerite gave it to M. Louis Huillet. Château Noaillac remained in this family until 1983.
It was then that Marc Pagès and his son Xavier acquired it. Since then, they have devoted all their application to making the wine, which is aged according to Médoc traditions in its cellars and matured in oak barrels.
It is marketed under the brand Château Noaillac, to private customers and for export.
Another part of the wines is sold under the brands: Moulin de Noaillac (a plot still bears the name of the mill that stood there and was demolished at the end of the last century), La Rose Noaillac, Les Palombes de Noaillac, Noaillac Prestige and the Rosé Dx.
In 2004, Damien, son of Xavier Pagès, joined the family estate to perpetuate this know-how into the third generation. The succession is assured.
