Château Brown

Château Brown is a Pessac-Léognan estate in Léognan.

Bernard Barthe owned it from 1994 and the Mau family, with Dutch partner Cees Dirkzwager, bought it at the end of 2004; Jean-Christophe Mau, from a fifth-generation Bordeaux wine-trading family, runs it, and his first vintage was 2005.

The vineyard is a single stretch of 31 hectares (26 red, 5 white) on two gravel ridges, planted to 53% Cabernet Sauvignon, 45% Merlot and 2% Petit Verdot for the red and 60% Sauvignon Blanc and 40% Sémillon for the white. The second wines are La Pommeraie de Brown and Le Colombier de Brown.
