Château Les Carmes Haut-Brion, like its neighbour, Haut-Brion, is located in Pessac, just southwest of the city of Bordeaux. From 1584 to 1789 it belonged to monks of the Carmelite order. The Chantecaille family, Bordeaux négociants, bought the estate after the French revolution and sold in 2010 to Groupe Pichet who have invested heavily with a dramatic new winery and a highly innovative wine making team.
