Château Cleyrac
Château Cleyrac is made up of 12 hectares of vines mainly planted with Merlot Noir and Cabernet Sauvignon. We plow our clay-limestone soils to no longer resort to herbicides.
Since 2020, we have also been practicing mating disruption, an environmentally friendly method for the fight against cluster worm.
The entire Vineyard has been certified High Environmental Value Level 3 since 2019. We protect biodiversity by having more than 30% of our surfaces in meadows or woodlands and we limit our inputs as much as possible.
The history of the Château
The origins
The Château Cleyrac was built in 1819 by M. Pascaud who was a pharmacist and had his pharmacy in the tower of the Château
The first vines
As of 1860, the first vines were planted along with the construction of a long path joining the castel to the little town of Villegouge. This was done for the wedding of the daughter of M. Pascaud
