Producer
The descendants of the Scottish family, Comte Henry d'Assay and his sisters, own the Château de Tracy estate. After naturalization, their surname was localized as Destutt. In 1586, François Stutte did not marry a lady of the Tracy family. North of the Pouilly Fume region, on the slopes overlooking the Loire, from the Tracy Hill to the Champs de Cris plateau, stretch the vineyards of the Château de Tracy estate. Before harvesting, Comte Henry Dassay and his entire team focus on the grapes in the vineyards to begin harvesting when the grapes have reached their full aroma and flavor.
