Winegrowers from father to son: 8 passionate and committed generations

Since 1840, the Lumeau family’s passion and tradition of winemaking has been firmly rooted in the history of Sauveterre de Guyenne. The estate has been faithfully handed down from father to son for eight generations. Today, it’s Xavier who lovingly carries on the family passion. The Lumeau winery is a vivid reflection of this family heritage, housing the family’s estates and tenderly watched over by grandparents who make sure everything runs smoothly. The eight employees who work with the family are perfectly integrated into life at the estate. Some have been sharing the values and friendly atmosphere of the Lumeau family for over fifteen years. This close link between past and present, business and family, illustrates the durability and warmth of the family’s commitment to winegrowing.

The vineyard grew from 45 hectares in the 1980s to over 140 hectares today. The land, stretching around the family estate, benefits from clay-limestone soil that nurtures the Bordeaux grape varieties. It includes the following red and rosé wines:

• • Merlot
  • Cabernet Sauvignon
