A wine and grain merchant, Monsieur Seigneriau sailed the peaceful waters of the Garonne, Gironde and Dordogne rivers to load his gabare with barrels of wine, which he then sold in the merchant ports. In the 1920s, Mathilde Roy, Mr Seigneriau's granddaughter, married Henri-Gabriel Bardet, a wine broker and founder of Château Val d'Or in Saint-Emilion Grand Cru. With the help of their only son, Roger Bardet, they acquired new plots of land at the end of the 1960s, where Château Pontet-Fumet was established. Roger Bardet passed on his passion for the vine, his taste for work and his deep respect for the terroir to his son Philippe. In 2008, Philippe became the owner of Château Franc le Maine, still in the Saint-Emilion Grand Cru appellation. The Bardet family relies on experimentation and technological innovation to constantly improve the quality of its wines. The Bardet vineyards are located in the heart of the Saint-Emilion appellation, their châteaux in the Saint-Emilion Grand Cru appellation embody the heritage and unique know-how of the Bardet family.
