CHATEAU HAUT BERGEY
Château Haut Bergey’s history dates back to the 15th century. It was originally known as La Maison Noble de Pontey. The estate was bought by Francois de Cresse, a member of the Bordeaux parliament in 1700. He very quickly grew the vineyard to 100 hectares. In 1991, the estate was bought by Slyviane Garcin-Cathiard, the granddaughter of a well-known Bordeaux wine merchant.
Of the red varieties, the Haut Bergey vineyard is planted with 54% Cabernet Sauvignon and 46% Merlot. Of the white varieties, it is planted with 82% Sauvignon Blanc and 18% Semillon. Most of these vines were planted in 1989.
