• THE HISTORY •
... Much later Pierre de Lur-Saluces, retired bachelor officer, and the last member carrying this family name to live at Malle, left the estate as inheritance to his nephew and godson, Pierre de Bournazel.
Pierre de Bournazel took over the property, which was in a run-down and neglected state, in the beginning of the fifties. He launched energetically and successfully into the restoration of both the vineyards and the château to their former glory. Count Pierre de Bournazel, over the years, became a well-known figure on the Bordeaux viticultural scene. Since his death in 1985, his wife has taken over the task of running the estate and has carried the torch with great elegance and refinement. Today she is ably seconded by her three sons, Paul-Henry, Antoine and Charles de Bournazel.
