Our development in sustainability

“We did not inherit the Earth from our ancestors, we borrow it from our children” (Antoine de Saint-Exupéry).

For Château Margaux this quote takes on its fullest meaning through the history of the Estate, the family heritage and our desire to continue the work that has been accomplished over the past several centuries.

We are pleased to strengthen the Estate team with the arrival of Aurélie Dutreux as the Sustainable Development Officer.

Aurélie will help us make progress in our water management and energy consumption, control our environmental impact along with the treatment and recovery of waste generated by our activities. We also want to make our employees aware of sustainable development issues. She will be able to give us the benefit of her experience as an engineer and her exceptional knowledge of the most modern methods and techniques, as well as her enthusiasm and motivation.

Her recruitment is a part of the environmental initiatives that have for several years now been in place at the Estate.
