As the oldest winehouse of Bordeaux and producer of the first French wines to reach American territory, the Barton & Guestier brand’s nearly three centuries of winemaking experience has made them a prestigious brand that is known to millions of consumers worldwide.
Barton & Guestier’s history dates all the way back to 1725, when Irishman Thomas Barton immigrated to Bordeaux to establish his own winehouse for nearly eight decades before his grandson, Hugh Barton, went into partnership with his friend, Frenchman Daniel Guestier, in 1802 and conceived what is now known as the iconic French wine brand, Barton & Guestier.
Barton & Guestier boasts a wide-ranging portfolio of wines that includes an assortment of Appellation d’Origine Contrôlée (AOC) and Indication Géographique Protégée (IGP) varietal wines from the primary French winegrowing regions of Bordeaux, the Loire Valley, Burgundy, Beaujolais, the Rhône Valley, Provence, Languedoc, Gascony and Corsica. The brand upholds a philosophy comprising of three pillars: character, knowledge, and art of living, evident through its nearly 300-year-old history, illustrious winemaking heritage and education programme.
