Vins et Vignobles Dourthe can trace its origins back to 1840 and today specialises in mid and top of the range wines. Part of the CVBG group, composed of Dourthe, Kressman and Delor, it is one of the leading companies in Bordeaux.
As well as owning and renting estates and vineyards in Bordeaux and the Languedoc, the company is a major négociant for Grand Cru wines from Bordeaux.
Vins et Vignobles Dourthe has been a generous supporter of the Institute since 2001, when the company first offered its facilities at Château Pey la Tour for the European Second Year Education Seminar. The Institute's students continue to enjoy the hospitality of Dourthe and benefit from studying in a major wine producing region during the annual student visit to Bordeaux.
Dourthe also supplies wine and speakers for a number of educational events and provides groupage facilities for the Institute's Annual Claret Tasting in London, the largest retrospective tasting of its kind held outside Bordeaux.
