The Château de Fieuzal is an historic estate in the town of Léognan, formerly owned by the de La Rochefoucauld family. Its modern success as a wine estate owes much to the Swede Erik Bocké, who managed it after World War II—the estate was later inherited by his wife. Now recognized as a Cru Classé de Graves (1953 classification), Château de Fieuzal cultivates 48 hectares on gravelly soils and clay-limestone sands typical of the Pessac-Léognan appellation.

The red wine vineyard, planted across 42 hectares, is composed of 50% Merlot, 40% Cabernet Sauvignon, 8% Petit Verdot, and 2% Cabernet Franc. The Grand Vin is aged for 12 to 18 months in French oak barrels, half of which are new—L'Abeille de Fieuzal, the estate’s second wine, benefits from the same high standards but offers a more immediate and accessible expression. The château’s wines enjoy an excellent reputation: distinguished, refined, and elegant reds, reflecting the characteristic style of Pessac-Léognan.
