« We craft our wines to be enjoyed simply and without pretension. Our aim is to share our passion with you — but above all, to bring you pleasure in every glass. »
Today, brothers Jean and Marc Médeville, the seventh generation, oversee 200 hectares of vineyards spread across several estates within 20 km of Château Fayau.
Drawing strength from their family legacy, they remain deeply committed to caring for the land of their ancestors while safeguarding it for future generations. Jean and Marc carry on tradition with passion, dedication, and a spirit of sharing.
With patience and determination, they work each day to pass on their family know-how while embracing innovation and looking to the future. Long dedicated to environmental responsibility and the transmission of knowledge, they are equally committed to ensuring the quality and consistency of their wines — the foundation of both their reputation and their longevity.
JEAN, THE MAN OF WINE
With generational know-how, deep expertise, and genuine curiosity, Jean crafts the wines of the family’s different estates. All of our wines are vinified and aged on the estate, with the utmost respect for each terroir.
“Our cellar is a blend of tradition and modernity — the place where technology meets terroir. The underground vats, carved into the rock by my grandfather, coexist with temperature-controlled tanks.”
Jean Médeville
MARC, THE MAN OF THE VINE
Together with his team, Marc tends to the vineyard. They observe, select, preserve, nurture, plant, and replant vines — some of which are over a century old. By cultivating diversity, they safeguard the richness and character of the estate.
“We still cultivate vines that are over a hundred years old, planted by my great-grandfather. Our vineyards are an integral part of our family heritage.”
Marc Médeville
Beyond this division of vineyard/cellar between Jean and Marc, there is real collaborative work with a single objective through the wines: to share.
May they be artisans of your tasting pleasure and your moments of conviviality. The love of wine, sharing and the desire to make tomorrow better than today are the challenges that Jean and Marc have set themselves to modernize and perpetuate the family vineyard.
Vignobles Jean Medeville et Fils relies on the energy and dedication of the women and men who work there.
That’s why we’re honoring them!
