This small domain, next to the very famous chateau Sociando Mallet in the Haute-Médoc, is not for sale. In 2006 four Dutch entrepreneurs and wine lovers who knew each other from wine-tasting events, were offered to buy Domaine Andron with its 7 hectares of excellent quality vines and terroir. Domaine Andron is situated in the little village of Saint-Seurin de Cadourne (just north of Saint Estèphe), being neighbors of the famous Sociando-Mallet. The four entre-preneurs have the ambition to make Domaine Andron a pearl of the Médoc. They settled for nothing less than the best techniques in vineyard and chai.
In the summer of 2009 Jean-Michel Dubos, the former directeur technique of Beausejour Heirs Duffau-Lagarosse (Premier Grand Cru Classé in Saint-Emilion) joined the team. The 2006 and 2007 vintages have been on the market for a few years and are doing well. The first vintage (2009) under new management by ERWU-projects with Jean Michel is spectacular. James Molesworth (Wine Spectator) Twittered in November 2011 that he liked what he tasted between all the other Haut Médocs! Together with the first impressions of the 2010 (to be botlled in summer 2012) prove that Domaine Andron has all the capabilities to become one of the highest quality wine producers of the Haut-Medoc.
