lacroix4.jpgToday the centrepiece of a Pomerol estate which is the pride of the Janoueix family, Château La Croix maintains its position amongst the leaders.

Professor Enjalbert reminds us of the pioneering spirit needed to bring great châteaux to their present eminence in these terms:
« The 18th century social and economic background was to the vinegrowing revolution in the Libournais was by and large unfavourable to innovation.
