The winery

Château Buisson-Redon

A Sèze family estate in Galgon, bought in 1918 by Louis Sèze and now run by Bertrand Sèze. It comprises 15 hectares in the AOC Bordeaux, next to Fronsac, on a gentle slope of clay-silt soils, dominated by merlot and cabernet franc. A permanent cover crop is kept between the rows to cut herbicides and compaction, which lowers vine vigour and yields.
