The Cadillac luxury car became so popular in America that the term 'The Cadillac of...' meant the best thing in that category. In 1980, Alain Thiénot bought a bottle of Château de Ricaud Cadillac in a posh restaurant in Paris. He must have been tempted to exclaim with a snigger 'This is the Cadillac of all red wines!', but instead he was so flabbergasted by the complex bouquet of strawberry, cherry and liqourice, he bought the estate! Thiénot went on to make this winery a Côtes de Bordeaux benchmark producer. True story.
This Château's long history dates back to the 15th century. It was destroyed by the Dukes of Eperon in 1650. Fully rebuilt,it continued its story until Alain Thiénot purchased the Château in 1980. In 2007, he went into partnership with a wine company called Dourthe. They redeveloped and transformed the property into a local legend in Loupiac, making a wine to rank among the finest of the Côtes de Bordeaux appellation.
