Château Arnaud de Gravette
16, la Coutaude, 33910 Sablons, France
About the Winery
A small estate created in 2003 when the family property was divided, it takes its name from its owner Éric Arnaud, with a reference to the nature of the soil—'gravette' meaning 'small pebbles.' Located in the Bordeaux Côtes de Francs appellation on gravelly clay-limestone soils, the estate produces Merlot-dominant red wines with Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon. The hillside location provides excellent drainage and sun exposure, contributing to the wines' concentration and elegance.
“A Bordeaux Côtes de Francs estate created in 2003, named after its gravelly soils ('gravette'), led by Éric Arnaud.”
