Maison Le Star

Deeply rooted in the vineyards…

With its roots in the heart of the Bordeaux wine region, Maison Le Star counts 6 Châteaux and almost 600 hectares of vines making it one of the Bordeaux wine industry’s key players.

Maison Le Star uses traditional winegrowing and winemaking methods combined with a modern approach. It benefits from a unique expertise in the production and commercialisation of easy to drink and highly enjoyable wines in France and worldwide.

Our Châteaux represent the diversity and variety of Bordeaux's terroirs, between the Dordogne and Garonne rivers. The plateaus and hillsides are composed of clay and limestone soils which lend the wines their distinctive characters. Whether suppleor powerful, fruity or tannic, the wines are always authentic.

‘We are proud of our team of 85 professional, a mix of all generations and different nationalities. All of the men and women who make up this team are passionate about wine and share the same objective: sharing with a wide consumer base, composed of wine experts and amateurs alike, the pleasures and diversity of French wines and making them accessible through affordable prices and easy to drink styles.’
