Suravenir, a subsidiary of the French insurance group Crédit Mutuel Arkea, has acquired three Bordeaux-Châteaux. These are Château Le Prieuré in St-Emilion, classified as Grand Cru Classé, with 6.2 ha of vineyards, and the entrepreneurially owned Château Vray Croix de Gay in Pomerol with 3.7 ha, as well as Château Siaurac in Lalande-de-Pomerol with 46 ha of vineyards.
They were previously owned by the holding company Artémis of the French billionaire François Pinault, which also owns Château Latour. Why they were sold is as little known as the purchase price.
