Château Les Carmes Haut-Brion benefits from a unique location, as it is one of the rare Bordeaux estates situated among an urban backdrop. Originally belonging to the Carmelite religious order from 1584 to 1789 before being purchased by the Chantecaille family. In 2010, the estate was acquired by the Pichet group, who proceeded to renovate extensively the estate, including the vineyard and adding a winemaking cellar designed by Philippe Starck with cutting edge features.
