Château
AOC Bordeau Supérieur
Located in Ludon-Médoc, a few kilometres south of Margaux, Château Lacombe Cadiot became the fifth property of the De Schepper family in 2004.
Not far from the renowned Château La Lagune and the Bec d'Ambès, where the Garonne and Dordogne rivers merge to form the Gironde, the vines benefit from a perfect subsoil of clay and sand.
Cadiot
A modern vision of Bordeaux. Unlike traditional Bordeaux blends and the other wines from the family estates, Cadiot is offered in three single-varietal wines: Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot.
Behind an elegant yet accessible label, Petit Verdot is given the recognition it deserves, while the emblematic grape varieties Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon are cultivated to reveal all their characteristics. For this round and full-bodied wine from the Bordeaux appellation, every effort is made to achieve a fresh and exceptionally pleasant fruity result.

Our story
The estate is located very close to the so-called “Bec d’Ambès”, where the Dordogne and Garonne rivers meet.
The soil
The Sun King, once the owner of Lacombe Cadiot, recognised that the soil of Lacombe Cadiot possessed many valuable qualities.
The winemaking process
The wine is given sixteen to twenty months to develop into a high-quality wine, partly thanks to the use of equipment of the highest quality.
