Château Jean Faux je starodavna posest v Bordeaxu. Zgodba sega v srednji vek, ko je bil Sainte-Radegonde templjarska vas. V 16. stoletju je posest pripadala družini Du Mas, v 18. stoletju je grof Ezechiel du Mas posest popolnoma prenovil. Današnji lastnik in vinar Pascal Colotte se je s svojo družino na posest Jean Faux preselil leta 2002. Sprva izdelovalec sodov je Pascal leta potoval po vinogradih sveta in nato še sam postal vinar. V osrčju regije Bordeaux, v vasi Sainte-Radegonde, je Jean Faux edinstvena posest. Gleda proti apelaciji Saint-Emilion, kateri je podobna po sestavi tal: glina, kreda in apnenc. Le četrtina zemlje posesti Chateau Jean Faux je zasajena z vinsko trto. Ostalo so gozdovi, travniki, potoki, ribniki - popoln ekosistem za razvoj biodiverzitete. Najlepši terroirji so rezervirani za trto in obsegajo 12,8 hektarjev: 10,6 hektarjev posesti je zasajenih z rdečim grozdjem, 2,2 hektara pa z belim. Trgatev poteka ročno, sortiranje jagod je zelo strogo. Od leta 2008 vina Jean Faux pridelujejo ekološki, vendar so že pred tem delali brez kemikalij. V letu 2014 je Pascal začel s prehodom na biodinamiko. Danes že delujejo z biodinamičnim certifikat - tako Demeter, kot tudi francoski Biodyvin.
