CHATEAU WINES:
THE HISTORY AND GUIDELINES
​

Picture

​
​A wine can only be called a “Chateau” if it is produced in the vineyards and cellars of a French castle that has been officially recognized by the French government. In order to carry the “Chateau” label, the wine must also adhere to a number of other strict guidelines, including being made from grapes that were all grown in the same vineyard, and being bottled at the chateau where it was produced.

Chateau, the French word for country house, or even castle, has a much more complex meaning in the world of winemaking. Chateau Margaux, as the name implies, is a wine that was produced in the winery of Margaux. Chateau Margaux, a premier cru estate in Bordeaux, has been producing wine since 1867. In contrast to the United States, the word chateau is not the same in the European Union.

In French, a chteau (pronounced [**to], plural: chteaux) is a manor house or residence for the lord of the manor or a fine country house for nobility or gentry with or without fortifications, originally, and still most frequently used.

If a family member’s ancestors are in the same noble family as one of France’s “noble” families, and if the house has passed down through the family for generations, it is typically referred to as a chateau. Chateau is defined as a residence of a lord who controls territory by the most common definitions in French history.
