A classic château property, the charming Château Roc de Candale is located east of Saint-Emilion’s celebrated limestone plateau in one of the region’s most desirable districts. The recently modernized estate shares its premium terroir with nearby Château Tertre Roteboeuf and La Mondotte.

Château Roc de Candale probably owes its origins to Marguerite de Suffolk Kendall, a descendent of Edward III, King of England and Duke of Aquitaine. When she married Count Jean of Foix, he added the Count of Candale name to his other titles. At their table, the Count and Countess of Foix-Candale would serve wines from their lands in Saint-Emilion, already widely renowned at the time thanks to the strict quality rules set down by the Jurade of Saint-Emilion.

Magali and Thibaut Decoster, owners of Clos des Jacobins and Château La Commanderie, purchased Château de Candale in 2017. Stéphane Derenoncourt is the winemaker.

Farming practices: Magali & Thibaut Decoster have obtained level 3 High Environmental Value certification in 2021. In 2024, Château Roc de Candale will complete its organic farming certification.
