Presentation
Located in the heart of the Catalan village of Baixas, Château les Pins is a real master's house, steeped in history. Founded in 1854 by the Duverney family, proud defenders of their cellar, its terroir, and its traditions, it is in this spirit that our limited edition cuvées represent this chivalrous nobility, with refined, cultivated, and conquering wines. It now houses the Town Hall and a barrel cellar where mainly our Fortified Wines age.
