His father John emigrated in 1691 from Galway, Ireland to Bordeaux, inherited an estate in the village of Bages through his wife Elizabeth in 1749. This year represents the foundation of Chateau-Lynch-Bages, which Thomas passed to his son, Jean-Baptiste, upon his marriage in 1779.

Chateau Villa Bel-Air is located in Saint-Morillon in the heart of the “Graves” appellation. After a long dormant period, the property was bought in 1988 by Jean-Michel Cazes and his family. From this date they completely restructured the vineyards and the technical installations. Today, Chateau Villa Bel-Air produces a red and a white wine that are both typical of the terroir and their grape varieties. Furthermore, they perfectly illustrate the finesse and complexity of Graves wines. As Robert Parker says – Siginficant efforts have been made to improve the property and fashion high-quality wines. This Graves is making waves in the wine world.

Burgundy is the region of very small estates, producing tiny quantities of often sublime and exquisite red and white wines. Francois Faiveley firmly believes in low yields, giving the grapes concentrated goodness. All the grapes are hand picked and the Premier and Grand Cru’s are bottled by hand. Domaine Faivelely is famous for its great red and white wines made from Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. Cote de Nuits and Cote de Beaune are in the Cote d’Or province where the top wines are produced. Faiveley wines are sold in the finest restaurants in France and worldwide.
