We are Gill and Ben Hall, the proud owners of Chateau La Grande Etouble.
We care and nurture our vineyard which will be fully organic this year -2021.
We harvest our Merlot and Cabernet Franc grapes (with a little help from our family and friends)
Ben then makes our wine which is available to wine lovers all over the world under the name of "Le Garagiste".
Our boutique wines are made with love and passion and from the heart.
Le Garagiste aka Ben Hall
Ben is the chef here at Chateau La Grande Etouble, the Propriétaire, Vigneron & Viticulteur. His ethos is always to be respectful of his "terroir". The quality of his grapes takes precedence over the quantity.
Ben Hall is your modern day Garagiste.
Family Le Garagiste
We have two wonderful married children
who currently live in the UK. They are all
often over here helping us with the grape harvest and making the wine.
It's a real family affair.
Teddy and Tubby
Teddy and Tubby are fox terrier brothers constantly hunting and searching for adventures - usually involving digging, chasing rabbits or getting dirty in mud or any sort of water.
