The origins of Château Pontet-Canet date back to the beginning of the 18th century (1705), when Jean-François de Pontet, an officer of King Louis XV, brought together several plots north of the village of Pauillac. A century later, Château Pontet-Canet experienced such a boom that it was included in the famous 1855 classification of "grands crus classés", ordered by Napoleon III. During its more than three centuries of history, the chateau has had only three owner families, an unprecedented fact in Bordeaux.

The last owners decided to start from scratch, erasing all the usual practices and replacing them with ecological practices, with the sole objective of reconnecting the vineyard to nature.

In 2004, the year of the first biodynamic trials, the wines are dazzling, luminous and full of life. This encourages the owners to go further and the vineyard is entirely converted to biodynamics, the first qualified estate in the Médoc to do so.

In 2017, the last of the additions was the creation of a new unique winery, designed without electricity to avoid the harmful effects of the waves, with around a hundred amphoras in which a third of the wine is aged and for the production of the amphoras a small part of the terroir and pebbles of the Pontet-Canet vineyard was used, another example of the maximum respect for the origins of the grape.

Naturpiedra took part in the works for this new cellar, supplying 155 m2 of brushed Phyllite in the 89.5x60x4 cm format for the floor, with a long brushed edge for the tiles facing the central aisle, and a few strips of brushed Phyllite 9xrandomx2 cm which act as channels.
