In 2001, their passion pushed them to invest in the prestigious neighborhood: Chteau Pas de lAne and Chteau Haut Saint Brice. Two Saint Emilion Grand Cru were born to offer the ultimate pleasure of the right bank area. Chateau Pas de l'Ane, neighbor of Chateau Figeac and a stone throw away from Chateau Cheval Blanc is a hidden tremendous value worth discovering.
