About le Grand Verdus

Brand Story

The history of wines at Grand Verdus is the story of a château dating from the Renaissance period and the Le Grix de la Salle family, who decided, after the Second World War, to develop their small vineyard into a renowned winery.
In 1975 at 24 years old, Antoine Le Grix de la Salle joined his father, Philippe le Grix de la Salle, at the estate, after a few months in Napa Valley, as a trainee with Robert Mondavi. Through his relentless work over 20+ years, he is responsible for the development of the vineyard to its current size, where nearly 50 plots are now identifiable.
Antoine's eldest son Thomas took over the vinification and marketing in 2008, and Edouard Antonie's second son, joined the family property in 2019, assisting with vineyard management and converting to organic farming.
