Senechaux, Domaine des

“The team of the Cazes family have done wonders with this estate, and they continue to deliver incredible quality in just about every vintage.” – Jeb Dunnuck

In the heart of the Baron’s boundaries sits the Sheriff’s Wood: Les Bois Sénéchaux. This plot is crucial to the success of one of the oldest vineyards in the region, so much so that it lends the property its name: Domaine des Sénéchaux. With a history dating back to the fourteenth century the property can be found in its current landscape in the 1950s, tended by the Raynaud family. They handed the reins to Pascal Roux who instigated an era of restoration.

Today’s custodians have taken the mantle from Pascal Roux. With thriving vineyards in Bordeaux, the Cazes family came to Domaine des Sénéchaux with a wealth of expertise and the drive to make a wine replete with the characteristics of the region. With Bernard Tranchecoste, who they entrust with the daily running of the land, they restored the vineyards to their former glory and modernized the estate. Since 2018, a new partnership with the Pradon family who became co-owners, has injected a new dynamic to the estate.
