The relationship between Olivier Decelle and Le Maitre de Chai is a testament to the quality of his wines.

Our portfolio includes a few of his properties: Château Jean Faure in Saint Emilion, Decelle-Villa in Burgundy, and Château Haut-Maurac. Decelle acquired these properties and others (including Mas Amiel) when moving from the frozen food business to the wine world. All of his wineries have a single objective: excellence. In keeping with this lofty goal, Decelle sought properties with top quality soils which would translate to wines that express their great terroir. Château Haut-Maurac is no different. Situated in a vast appellation whose soils are of varying compositions, Haut-Maurac occupies a privileged spot on the gravelly ridges of St-Yzans-de-Médoc. Himself a wine-lover, Decelles makes wines that please him. Haut-Maurac, regardless of vintage, offers up typical Médocain aromatics, a muscular but balanced palate, with tannins that are surprisingly refined for a wine from the peninsula. Medoc wine-lovers—as well as those who’ve avoided the appellation—owe it to themselves to try Haut-Maurac.
