Château Mayne Blanc is located in the Lussac Saint-Emilion wine region, which was once destroyed from outside invasions. It was rebuilt by the Benedictine monks in the 13th century, spreading its reputation as far as England.
This regions was established by ‘Lucius.’ the first person from Roman times to introduce grapevines and cultivate them in this area.
As early as 1961, Château Mayne Blanc has been highly respected due to its unique wine quality. A new owner decided to innovate and started the construction of underground cellars and invested in top quality oak barrels. Château Mayne Blanc has gained its fame since then! And it never stopped innovating and improving its winemaking techniques.
In 1983, Château Mayne Blanc reached a new peak after the hard work of several generations. The countless positive reviews and numerous awards sealed its reputation of a charming wine, reflecting a century of crafted and passionate winemaking.
