Inside Château Dalem — A Vertical Tasting with Brigitte Rullier-Loussert

A quiet cellar in Fronsac. Four glasses. Sixty years of history.

Inside Château Dalem, Christer joins owner Brigitte Rullier-Loussert for a rare vertical tasting — and a candid conversation about family, legacy, and one of Bordeaux’s most overlooked estates.

Step inside.

Join us for an intimate portrait at Château Dalem in Fronsac, where Christer sits down with owner Brigitte Rullier-Loussert to taste through a vertical of remarkable vintages: the elegant 1964, the powerful 1990, the surprising 2002, and a few more that together tell the story of this quietly remarkable estate.

As the glasses are poured and the wines unfold, Brigitte opens up about her family’s history, her vision, and the quiet ambition she holds — not just for Dalem, but for Fronsac itself.

An appellation sitting right next to Saint-Émilion and Pomerol, yet producing wines of depth, richness, and finesse — often without the same attention.

If you’re drawn to old Bordeaux, intimate tastings, and stories of places that deserve a closer look, come inside Château Dalem with us.

Want To Go Deeper?

Inside The Tales Archive, you can explore a growing library of longer, unfiltered, and far more detailed conversations with chateau owners and winemakers captured in vineyards, cellars, and at the tables where decisions are made.

Films about the craft, terroir, château history, and the personal journeys of the people behind the great wines.

No scripts. No polishing. Just real conversations, as they happened.

It’s not for everyone. They get a little wine nerdy.

But if you care about what’s in the glass — and where it truly comes from — and want to go deeper — this is where it gets interesting.
