Almost 100% of the wines in Baron Francois’ extensive portfolio are single vineyard wines with whom the company maintains faithful relations vintage after vintage.
The Lesgourgues family took over Baron Francois in 2000. They produce and distribute, among other fine estates, the acclaimed Château de Laubade Bas Armagnacs and the rising star of the Graves, Château Haut Selve (Bordeaux).
Baron Francois’ Selection Committee has the objective to select elegant and well-balanced wines from producers who embody their “terroir” in their wines. Baron Francois is also devoted to assist its customers in their retailing activities with a policy of high quality service and a neighborly attitude of long term partnerships.
For the past few years, Baron Francois extended its range of premium Wines and Spirits with top ratings and awards from France and from the rest of the world, like Champagne Joseph Perrier and Calvados Christian Drouin.
Now operating in New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Washington DC, Virginia and Maryland the company is adding domestic wines and spirits selected with the same care and philosophy.
