Launched in 2024, La Surprise de Haut-Brisson is a bold range born from the desire to explore new expressions of wine. Produced just seven kilometers from the château, in Sainte-Terre near the Dordogne River, it takes root in the vision of Stéphane Schinazi, initiated at the time of the estate’s acquisition in 2019.
This range highlights grape varieties rarely seen in the region — Viognier, Grenache, Syrah, Sangiovese and Pinot Noir — along with a Chenin cultivated in Latresne. La Surprise celebrates curiosity, enjoyment and openness, while remaining faithful to the estate’s values of quality and craftsmanship.
