Coming from families of avid wine collectors and connoisseurs, Andrew and Melody fell in love with the beautiful vineyards of Bordeaux during their honeymoon and it was then that the idea of building their own story in the vines first struck. With perseverance and quite some luck after years of search for the perfect terroir, Andrew and Melody came across Chateau La Commanderie and saw much potential.
With the guidance of their friend, renowned winemaker Pascal Chatonnet, Chateau La Commanderie embarked on a series of works, renovations and upgrades to both the vineyard and the cellar and is finally ready to be unveiled to the public.
Each year Chateau La Commanderie produces two labels: Chateau La Commanderie and Esprit de la Commanderie. Strikingly elegant and balanced with hints of chocolate and truffles, Chateau La Commanderie is made from the finest plots of the vineyard, while Esprit de La Commanderie is a smooth and floral to be enjoyed by all.
