Château La Roque de By

Château La Roque de By is a Cru Bourgeois estate in the Médoc, located in Saint-Christoly-de-Médoc. Its name originates from a former 18th-century family property, firmly anchoring the estate in the winemaking tradition of Bordeaux’s Left Bank. Planted with Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, the vineyard rests on gravel and clay-limestone soils that promote balance and freshness. Aged for 12 months using traditional methods, the wine charms with expressive fruit, rounded tannins and reliable ageing potential.
