1897. Fernand Ginestet founded Ginestet & Co. Our company proudly bears his name, and perpetuates his ambition to promote Bordeaux wines throughout the world.<\/span><\/p>\n

A true visionary of the profession, and a key player in in the structuring of interprofessional organizations, Fernand Ginestet was already convinced of the importance of forging deep links between viticulture and commerce.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Ginestet family has always been a part of the prestigious world of Bordeaux Grands Crus, having once owned Ch\u00e2teaux Margaux, Clos Fourtet, Cos d’Estournel…<\/span><\/p>\n\n<\/div> <\/div>\n

1978. The Ginestet family passes the torch onto the Merlaut family and joins Group Taillan, founded in 1961. Jacques Merlaut, known for his energy and vision, shakes up the wine business in Bordeaux<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Group Taillan also owns Ch\u00e2teau Chasse Spleen, Haut Bages Lib\u00e9ral, Ferri\u00e8re, Gruaud Larose, Citran, Broustet,\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n

It is within a universe of Grands Crus Class\u00e9s, essentially from the M\u00e9doc, that the Maison maintains and develops its historical links with the most prestigious properties of the Bordeaux region.<\/span><\/p>\n

The opening up of world markets and the reputation of the great wines of Bordeaux favored the international development of Maison Ginestet, which established itself in Asia in the 1990s (China, Japan).<\/span><\/p>\n\n<\/div> <\/div>\n
