In 1947 Max Cuvelier moved to Bordeaux and created a second trading house: H. Cuvelier & Fils. His eldest son, Didier, has been in charge of the daily management of the family properties since 1979. For 40 years, he presided over the destinies of the estates, bringing the same care and the same search for precision in the development of wines in Saint-Julien as in Saint - Estephe.
In 2018, Sara Lecompte Cuvelier (cousin of Didier) took up the torch, leading Château Le Crock on the path to excellence.
Château Le Crock has 32 hectares of vines on an exceptional terroir made up of gravel, sand on the surface and clay in the subsoil.
Grapes: 53% Cabernet Sauvignon, 33% Merlot, 9% Cabernet Franc and 5% Petit Verdot.
The vinifications are carried out at low temperature; the extractions are made by reassembly in the concrete vat and only by manual punching in the wooden vat.
Maceration of 20 days during which the lees are resuspended daily in order to bring texture, mellowness, coating to the wine.
Pressing of the marcs by vertical press cage wood.
All the press wines are separated from the wines of gout waiting for assemblages.
Clos Manou: 80 to 90% of the wines are aged 17 months in new barrels exclusively in wood of French origin, with a medium heat.
10 to 20% of the wines are aged in ovoid vats (concrete eggs) of 7 hectoliters for 12 months in order to maintain freshness and purity. For about 10 weeks, we operate a weekly stirring by rotating the barrels in order to put the lees in suspension and bring to the wine a creamy texture which amplifies the mid-palate.
Little Manou: we operate in the same spirit and with the same philosophy as for our great wine, but to preserve the balance of the wine, a breeding of 12 months is carried out in the old barrels of Clos Manou.
Only two rackings are made during the breeding.
The bottling is done without sticking with a light filtration, always under cover of carbon dioxide to avoid any premature oxidation.

It is in 1853 that the Baron Nathaniel de Rothschild, from the English branch of the famous family of patrons and bankers, buys Château Brane Mouton in Pauillac, in the heart of the Medoc.

In 1922, at the age of 20 years, Philippe de Rothschild (1902-1988), great-grandson of Baron Nathaniel, takes over the destinies of Mouton. Its decisions, starting with bottling at castlewill revolutionize Bordeaux's uses.
Over the years, he had the “Grand Chai” built, initiated the collection of artist labels, created the Musée du Vin dans l'Art, and obtained official Premier Cru Classé status for Château Mouton Rothschild. At the same time, he increased the family's wine heritage and in the early 1930s acquired a trading company, which would experience considerable development under its current name of Baron Philippe de Rothschild SA
In 1988, Baroness Philippine de Rothschild succeeded her father, Baron Philippe de Rothschild. With the charisma and energy that characterize her, soon effectively supported by her two sons Philippe and Julien, she always shines more light on the glory of Mouton Rothschild, without forgetting of course the other great family Châteaux wines: Armailhac and Clerc Milon in Pauillac, Opus One in California, Almaviva in Chile, Domaine de Baron'Arques in Pays d'Oc.
