Originally from Schönberg, in the Rhineland, fleeing the consequences of the defeat of Napoleon I, the Yung family origins settled for more than a century in Algeria. Already listed in the first edition of Féret des Vins d’Oranie in 1886, the family developed its vineyard until independence, until forced to abandon the wine estates it had owned since 1859.
In 1862 Charles Young joined his older brother, already settled in Gironde. He then decides to acquire for his 2 children and his 2 nephews, the Château Haut Mondain, a 42-hectare AOC Bordeaux wine estate, followed then by Château Barail, Les Hauts de Palette and Moulin de Tassin.
Since 2020, the Charles Yung & Fils vineyards have been committed to a societal and environmental approach by obtaining High Environmental Value (HVE), level 3 certification.
The Dezzani Winery was founded in 1934 in Cocconato, in the province of Asti. The town is located 491 meters above sea level on the renowned Riviera del Monferrato. The history of our wines is closely linked to this territory, to its ideal microclimate for growing unique vineyards, and to its authentic tradition. The historical remains of Romanesque, Gothic, and medieval architecture frame the rows of Barbera, Albarossa, Cabernet, and Syrah, making the landscape even more captivating.
The Piemonte DOC Bianco 4 Bucce is a unique wine crafted from a blend of four grape varieties: Cortese, Chardonnay, Sauvignon, and Timorasso, combining native Piedmontese varieties with international ones. The grapes, harvested at different times in September, are vinified at a controlled temperature. Cortese contributes freshness, Chardonnay brings notes of exotic fruit, while Timorasso and Sauvignon add complexity and minerality to the blend.

In March 2002 the DiGiorgio Family became the proud owners of the second oldest winery in Coonawarra. This winery had been known since the early 1950’s as ‘Rouge Homme’ and holds enormous importance within the ‘winescape’ of Australia.
