A family estate reawakened in 2011 by the arrival of son Paul Garcin, a former rock musician on the Bordeaux scene. An instant switch to organic and biodynamic viticulture, to produce intuitive, artist's wines that are immediately sapid and have a strong pleasure note. As a deliberate iconoclast, Paul Garcin makes a point of offering different facets to each Haut-Bergey vintage: a classic cuvée vinified and matured in the tradition of Bordeaux's great growths, the more contemporary Cuvée Paul, and single-vineyard cuvées highlighting their respective terroirs.
An approach hailed by the Revue du Vin de France: "A modern vision and the ability to reinvent oneself without betraying: Haut-Bergey symbolises the current vitality of Bordeaux's most historic vineyard".
Cuvée Paul is a "modern" Pessac-Léognan, produced using contemporary practices to stay as close to the fruit as possible: partial vinification using whole bunches, and virtually wood-free ageing (concrete egg, amphora and demi-muid).
The 2019 vintage is rated 92/100 by the Revue du Vin de France "the Cuvée Paul shines with the vibrant, light, subtly iron and spicy fruit that makes it so unique" (Guide 2023).

The vintage 2019 is rated 91/100 par le Guide Bettane et Desseauve 2024
Rated 93/100 by the Revue du Vin de France "For a Cabernet Franc, the comparison with a Loire red seems obvious. But the Haut-Bergey puts us firmly in Bordeaux. Smoky, graphite, ripe fruit, a bouquet that is at once free, precise and poetic. The tannins are present, but not clinging, and the wine has a long, finely vegetal finish". (April 2024)
