    Information about domain Château de Chantegrive

    In 1966, Henri and Françoise Lévêque bought their first plots of vines in Podensac. Forty years later, the Château Chantegrive vineyard covers almost 100 hectares and is a reference for the Graves appellation. Today it is the new generation with Agnes, Patrice, Hélène and François who took over the property, backed by the wise advice of Hubert de Bouärd since 2006.
