CHATEAU ROCHE LALANDE

An Exceptional Terroir with a Rich History

Founded in the 17th century, this vineyard is nestled on a deep gravel hill, ensuring natural drainage and optimal sun exposure. This unique terroir, at the heart of the Pessac-Léognan appellation, shapes exceptional wines that reflect the region’s winemaking heritage and expertise. In 2004, Brigitte and José Rodrigues-Lalande took on the challenge of elevating this legacy by focusing on high-end production that seamlessly blends tradition and innovation.

A Cutting-Edge and Eco-Friendly Winery

Once considered mere functional buildings, wineries have now become iconic elements of the viticultural landscape. Here, the winery’s architecture harmonizes with its surroundings, featuring a façade of pebbles and gravel that directly echoes the soils of the Graves region. Designed with sustainability in mind, this winery combines technological excellence with respect for the terroir, providing the perfect setting for wine aging.

Architectural and Cultural Recognition

A true testament to the balance between nature and modernity, this remarkable winery stands out for its bold architectural vision and seamless integration into the landscape. Today, it is proudly featured in the “Architectures et Paysages” collection, co-edited by the CAUE of Gironde—an esteemed recognition celebrating the fusion of winemaking heritage and contemporary innovation.
