The winery is located in Sauternes in the area of the same name (Bordeaux). Its origins lie in a wine estate called Château Lamothe d'Assault. Renamed Château Lamothe in 1814, the estate came into the possession of the Baptiste family. It was classified as Deuxième Grand Cru Classé in the 1855 Bordeaux Classification. Due to family conflicts, it was divided into several parts, but the two wine estates described below retained this status even after the division. One part was bought by Charles-Joseph Bergey. Armandt Bastit-Saint-Martin acquired this in 1958 and named it Château Lamothe. He sold part of it to the Despujols family in 1961, who added their name to it. The remaining part was now called Château Lamothe-Bergey, which was then sold to the Guignard family in 1981 and was renamed Château Lamothe Guignard. The current owner of Château Lamothe Despujols is Guy Despujols. The vineyards cover seven hectares and are planted with Sémillon (85%), Sauvignon Blanc (10%) and Muscadelle (5%). The second wine is called "Les Tourelles de Lamothe".
