The wines were purchased by the Libourne négociant Pierre Beylot, from the same family that established Chateau Peyraud. During the 19th Century the estate was in the ownership of Pigasse of nearby Pavie for a short period of time, and at one point it was divided into two, but subsequently reunited some years later. The estate established a reputation for good wines, winning a gold medal in the Exposition Universelle in Paris in 1867, by which time it was in the ownership of the Ducasse family. Within a few decades the estate passed from the hands of Ducasse, coming to Hanri Raba in 1893. He and subsequently his wife and son André, who took over the running of the estate following Raba's death in 1925, invested heavily in the property. During World War II André died without an heir, and so the ownership of the estate passed to a niece, Hélène Gratiot Alphandéry, in 1941. With the help of the régisseur Pharaon Roche she ran the estate until 1990 when her own son, Jacques Olivier Gratiot, took hold of the reins.
