An A.O.C. Listrac Mdoc for this award-winning wine from one of the many castles of Edmond de Rothschild, where the vine was already cultivated in the twelfth century.
In 1973, the banker Edmond de Rothschild acquired Ch¢teau Clarke, a 54-hectare Cru Bourgeois Suprieur in Listrac-Mdoc. With a passion for excellence, the Baron has made Clarke a reference in his region.
The Ch¢teau Clarke estate has its origins in the 12th century when the Cistercian monks of the Vertheuil Abbey planted the first vines. Much later, the knight Tobie Clarke bought this land which definitively acquired its name in 1818. From successive inheritances to sales, the property was bought in 1973 by Baron Edmond de Rothschild. At that time, the abandoned vineyard was redesigned, and then totally reconstituted between 1974 and 1978 to reach a vineyard surface of 54 hectares.
