The castle was built as early as the 1st century, but it was in the 18th and 19th centuries that it truly came into its own with its 3,000 square meters of covered space. The history of GAURE is also the story of the men and women who created the beauty of this unique place and, today, of its great wines. Its story continues to this day through the name of the estate's flagship wine, “Le Château”.
