Château de Cranne is a 44 hectares family estate stretching over the communes of Donzac, Semens, Loupiac and La Sauve Majeure. Vincent Lacoste took over in 2008 and decided to convert into organic in 2010. The 2016 vintage of Chateau de Cranne Cote de Bordeaux is a game of two halves and therefore has a degree of uniqueness.
