Château Graves de Pez is the fruit of the work of Paul and Paulette BUSSIER, two passionate about vine, from an old family of cognac (winegrowers since 1911). In 1960, at the request of the Tesseron family, they settled in SAINT ESTEPHE to take care about Château Lafon-Rochet (4 ° Grand Cru Classé).
For 35 years they managed this famous estate and acquired some vines for themselves. In 2002, Paul BUSSIER disappeared and his children took over.
Maxime SAINT MARTIN was only 21 years old when he decided in late 2008 to buy the vineyard from his uncles. In 2009, he made his first harvest with the help of oenologists Jacques and Eric BOISSENOT, under the benevolent eye of his father winegrower in Lamarque (Château Vieux Gabarey – Haut Medoc – Cru Artisan).
With is 3 hectares, Maxime is the youngest winemaker of SAINT ESTEPHE
