那是於 2000 年 Florence Decoster 即現時莊主萌起了這個念頭，當時她丈夫 Dominique 剛售出他的 Limoges 瓷器生意 Haviland並感到懷疑說：「現在跟我說要買葡萄園？」但不久後，同時熱愛自然和高級飲食的 Florence 和Dominique，開始積極投入這新計劃。
他們第一次到達這個位於石灰岩平原，Saint-Emilion 幾哩外的 Château Fleur Cardinale 後，就被這裡的美景和周圍的郊野吸引，並於 2001 年買下這個物業。

It was Florence Decoster, the present owner, who first nurtured that idea and brought it to fruition in the year 2000. Her husband, Dominique, having just completed the sale of his Limoges porcelain business, Haviland, had his doubts. “And now buy a vineyard?” he wondered slightly perplexed. But slowly the idea grew on him, and finally Florence and Dominique, both of them are lovers of nature and fine dining, became enamoured with their new plan.
Arriving for the first time at the Château Fleur Cardinale estate, which is located on a limestone plateau just a few miles from the historic village of Saint-Emilion, Florence and Dominique were amazed by the beauty of the place and its surrounding countryside. They acquired the property in May 2001.
