Wine Spectator: Bordeaux Futures? Tough Sell. Wineries? Big Deals Abound

Sylvie Cazes has acquired St.-Emilion Grand Cru Classé Château Chauvin, owned by the Ondet family since 1891, for an undisclosed sum. Chauvin is a 37-acre estate in St.-Emilion’s northwest near Pomerol. It has been under the management of two sisters, Marie-France and Béatrice Ondet, for the past two decades.
