Château Thieuley
Just outside Bordeaux, on the clay‑and‑limestone hills of Entre‑Deux‑Mers, Château Thieuley has become a defining family estate. Bought in 1950 by André Courselle, it was transformed from 1972 onward by his son Francis—an engineer and oenology professor—who expanded the vineyard and set a tone of precision and clarity.
Today, sisters Marie and Sylvie Courselle steer the domaine with hands‑on viticulture, parcel work and a style that prizes freshness over excess. In the whites, Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon shine, often shaped by extended lees ageing sur lie to build texture and lift; in the cellar, careful extraction and measured oak keep the line pure.
Thieuley speaks of modern Bordeaux beyond the grand names: grounded, technical, and unmistakably local—where terroir and family continuity are the real luxury.Château Thieuley
