The castle was for a long time the property of the Labonne-Alberts, whose family roots on this estate date back to 1745. Edouard Féret, in his 1903 work, mentions a Labonne, who then produced 15 barrels of red Bergerac at this estate. Roger Chambaud, last descendant of this lineage, continued the work of his ancestors by tirelessly expanding the original vineyard with noble grape varieties and giving it its first titles of nobility. In 1992, he transferred his property to the current owners whose ancestors from Lot, the Deloncle de Couty de Panat de Montlauzun known since 1447, count, in addition to a number of men of letters and dress, a long succession of winegrowers in Saint Vincent Rive d' Olt.
