Château Croizet-Bages is a Pauillac estate in Bordeaux, owned by the Quié family since 1942 and now run by third-generation siblings Anne-Françoise and Jean-Philippe Quié. The family remains closely involved, with Jean-Philippe overseeing winemaking and Anne-Françoise helping refine each stage of production. The vineyards sit on deep Garonne gravel and gravelly-sandy soils with loam, offering good drainage and concentration. Farming is described as low-intervention, under Agriculture Raisonnée, and the estate also holds High Environmental Value 3 certification. Recent investment has included extensive renovations and cellar modernization completed in 2026.
