About the Producer
Situated to the north of Saint Emilion on south facing slopes, the property has been in the hands of the same family for over 500 years. It gained its name during the English occupation in the 14th century where the owner was rewarded for defending France against the English. As early as 1906, Château Grand Français was singled out for the excellent health condition of its vineyards and received the Medal of Agricultural Merit.
Current owner Dominique Vacher initiated the conversion process to Organic Agriculture in 1999. Healthy fruit is a necessary prerequisite, but at Grand Français it is not considered enough to make a great wine. Soil analyses have been made to plant the correct varietal in the correct parcel and everything at the property is done by hand. Being organic means there are humans in the vines every day – to weed manually so as not to use weedkiller and to perform leaf thinning to give the grapes optimum exposure when needed.
Pesticides are never used – instead a talc is used which absorbs moisture, prevents sunburn and confuses pests by turning the leaves white.
