The vineyard is located in Saint-Émilion in the area of the same name (Bordeaux). The former owners of Château Figeac sold a 37-hectare section to the Corbiere family in 1879. They divided the property into two parts in 1882. One part was retained and became Château La Tour Figeac. The other part was sold and named Château La Tour du Pin Figeac. In 1923, the estate was bought by M. G. Bélivier and acquired by the Giraud family in 1972. In 1947, the estate was divided up again. The smaller part went to the Moueix family empire. It was sold to Château Cheval Blanc in 2006 and given the name Château La Tour du Pin. The larger part was finally also acquired by Château Cheval Blanc in 2022. The two original parts were thus reunited.
