The history of Barton & Guestier is passionate and rich. Almost three centuries of wines, labels, markets, people and passion...
Nothing would have been possible without the city of Bordeaux - Port de la Lune - Port of the Moon (see picture) and the Garonne river!
Thomas Barton settled in 1725 in the historical Chartron area, Daniel Guestier was born in Bordeaux, became a captain and a trader also settling at the Pavé des Chartrons, now called Cours Xavier Arnozan...

The beautiful Roman city is part of UNESCO's World Heritage and its city heart is just marvelous. While watching over the river, it is easy to imagine how Guestier's ships, like La Petite Nancy, La Grande Nancy, L'Elise, La Belle Poule and many more, left the Port of the Moon, sailing down the Garonne river for 40 Miles before reaching the Atlantic Ocean... and bringing Barton's wines all over the world...

On the occasion of the 290th anniversary of the company, Barton & Guestier proposes a special historical city visit for all its guests, making their stay at Chateau Magnol even more unforgettable!
