In 1976, Jean and Christiane Bellanger fell for Château Roquefort, an Entre-Deux-Mers vineyard. They revived the estate, captivated by its history and terroir. The estate once belonged to artist Alain de Condé, known for preserving its 18th-century charm. Maurice Druon, a friend of de Condé, believed “an artist is someone with enough soul to be able to lavish upon things, with a calm abundance.”
