Château Teyssier www.teyssier.fr
Château Teyssier is situated in the heart of the renowned Bordeaux vineyards at Saint Emilion. The estate is a Saint Emilion Grand Cru that dates back to 1714.
In 1869 Jules Roy bought the property and built the château in the Napoleonic, second empire style. The vineyard went through fluctuations in its fortune over the years but, with the arrival in the early 1990’s of Jonathan and Lyn Maltus, a rigorous, enthusiastic program of renovation was implemented. Bringing the technological advancements of the new world to the heart of the old, they introduced a new, ambitious team, constructed two state-of-the art wineries and a modern barrel-cellar and tripled the size of the vineyard.
Jonathan Maltus, Neil Whyte, and Cyril Beziat, with Gilles Pauquet consulting, undertake winemaking. The vineyard is managed by Robert Fortin.
The result - wines of exceptional quality ranging from the acclaimed Chateau Teyssier to the sought-after Le Dôme.
