About
1855 Grand Cru Classe – 5th Growth, Pauillac
Prior to 1939, the estate belonged to the Lynch family of Ireland.
Jean-Carles Cazes acquired the business with its 16th-century building and the 1850s vat room.
In 2017, the Cazes family started renovations of the winemaking facilities completed in 2021
The Cazes family also owns Chateau Ormes de Pez in Saint-Estephe, a wonderful hotel and restaurant Cordeillan-Bages near Pauillac, and a bistro Cafe Lavinal in the villages of Bages, which is an excellent lunch spot on your Medoc wine tour.
