The history of the Château
Château Lieujean has been producing a stylish and lively Haut Medoc with aroma and intense bouquet. Gravel beds , clay and sandy soils give a very classical Medoc touch to these grape varieties. The wines have a tannic structure which is characteristic of the great Medoc wines, while keeping a very fruity flavour with a light hint of wood.
