L'Ostal Cazes 1 Items

Admirers of Bordeaux know the Cazes family well. One leading wine publication memorably dubbed Jean-Michel Cazes "The New Baron of Bordeaux" for his stunning Chateau Lynch-Bages and Ormes de Pez.

The Cazes family name has long stood for vision and dedication to top-flight winemaking. Now, this internationally-renowned winemaking family has set its sights on southern France, lured by the promise of the vineyards of Languedoc.

After much searching, Cazes, with Lynch Bages' chief winemaker Daniel Llose, discovered an exceptional site on the terraces of La Livinière and purchased a 370-acre property that enjoys the benefits of warm Mediterranean sunshine and the night time coolness of the Causse plateau.

Cazes renamed the property "L'Ostal Cazes" as L'Ostal means both family and family house in the ancient "langue d'oc." Under the leadership of Jean-Michel's son, Jean-Charles, the vineyard has undergone a complete renovation including new trellising, replanting, and the installation of state-of-the-art equipment designed to produce top quality wines.
