A great terroir
Chateau Peyros sets itself apart thanks to a very specific terroir and micro-climate. Planted over a significant rocky mass, Chateau Peyros is benefiting of a full south exposure. This exceptional sun exposure guaranties a greater photosynthesis for its vineyard, a greater maturation of its grapes and higher quality of its wine production.
The Madiran appellation
Part of the Madiran appellation, Chateau Peyros is located in the heart of the Vic Bilh, or “old country”, in the local dialect. Shaped by Pyrenean moraines, the Madiran region is composed of a succession of south-north oriented valleys. Its multiple slopes have an east-west exposure.
Female winemaker & sustainability
For the last 8 years, Chateau Peyros’ winemaker has been Corinne Lanyou, whom has been creating the most exquisite wines from Madiran’s terroir. Fervent supporters of sustainable agriculture, the Lesgourgues family has reduced the use of chemicals by more than 40% since they took over the property. Their wines are now certified sustainable.

For every order received, Baron Francois plants a tree on your behalf. Thank you for getting involved with us!
We chose to plant trees as this simple, affordable, and effective act helps with so many important issues: just as trees provide benefits to entire ecosystems by stabilizing soils, providing rich habitat for wildlife, absorbing and filtering stormwater, cooling temperatures, and capture carbon, they also provide a range of benefits to human health and help to create jobs. We are extremely grateful for the opportunity you give us to make our small contribution for a better world, one tree at a time!
We have chosen One Tree Planted as our main partner in that effort. Our choice was motivated by the fact that they don’t stop their work when the trees are planted. They work closely with local experts to ensure a good biodiversity development and protection and an optimal growth of nascent forests.
