Château du Gayon is located at the southernmost point of the Madiran appellation. The château dates back to the medieval era, long before the birth of King Henri IV or Christopher Columbus. 
The 9-hectare vineyard has been tended by American winemaker and architect David Ebert since 2008. David fell in love with the region after discovering it by bicycle!
