Château Peyre-Lebade
Domaines Barons De Rothschild (Lafite) Haut-Médoc, France
Château Peyre-Lebade veils a rich heritage, marked by several famous individuals. The limestone-rich geology of the site certainly influenced the name of the property, since Peyre-Lebade means "Raised-Rock" (pierre levée). Indeed, the site features a former limestone quarry, which was probably used in building the neighboring villages. The first traces of viticulture on the site date back to the Cistercien monks of the Vertheuil Abbey in the 12th century.
