History 

Bought back in 1989, the Chateau Côte Montpezat is situated in Belvès de Castillon on the appellation of controlled origin Côtes de Castillon.

The legend tells that those who listen closely to the well of Chateau Côte Montpezat, can hear the pilgrims of Saint Jacques de Compostelle who, when crossing these lands used to drink here… The old quarters dating from the XVIIth century were used by pilgrims during their famous walk.
