Domaine de Baronarques was bought by the Baroness
Domaine de Baronarques was established in 1998 when Baroness Philippine de Rothschild bought the estate with her two sons, Philippe Sereys de Rothschild and Julian de Beaumarchais de Rothschild, and renamed it. They started a five-year project for the renovation of the winemaking facility and the vineyards. Her daughter, Camille Sereys de Rothschild, joined the family business in 2014. In July 2018, a new barrel hall was inaugurated with all the best features for winemaking and bottling.
