Château Vircoulon has been a family estate for 5 generations since Pierre Bedey purchased it at the end of the 1800s. Later in the 1980s, Patrick Hospital, the 4th generation, specialized the estate to winegrowing, made his first vinification, when grapes were brought to the cooperative cellar so far, and reorganized the vineyard.
As for me, the passion of winegrowing – grapes – comes from my childhood! After my apprenticeship, it got stronger as I met people in love with this job. Meeting the 5th generation, my companion Caroline Hospital, led me to Château Vircoulon. Together, we develop the farm by working to our best to keep that legacy going and for the customers’ pleasure.
