Portrait of Vincent Gauthier
i. Biography
His specialty is Terroir-driven Bordeaux wines, and that focus gives Vincent Gauthier’s work at Château Pertignas a clear frame: one estate, one maker, and a practice shaped by place. In a region where precision matters, the point is not volume or ornament, but the ability to read the vineyard closely and let the site set the terms. Gauthier’s profile sits in that register: restraint, consistency, and a direct line to terroir.

Coming Up
Today, Vincent Gauthier is winemaker of Château Pertignas. That role puts the estate’s identity in his hands, with each decision in vineyard and cellar tied to how the property speaks in wine.

For Gauthier, the post is an ongoing commitment to the château’s character.
Where They Are Now
