What happens when centuries-old Bordeaux winemaking collides with a fresh, fearless Haitian-American spirit? You get Château Fillon—a winery that’s rewriting what it means to sip tradition while savoring innovation. This isn’t just wine; it’s a story in every pour,
rooted in legacy and bursting with a bold new energy.
Every bottle of Château Fillon is a tribute: to the soil of Bordeaux, to the Haitian roots of its founder Karlex, and to the belief that wine is more than a drink—it’s an experience. From crisp, refreshing whites to bold, complex reds, each of the estate’s four signature wines reflects
character, craft, and a whole lot of soul.
From Haitian Roots to Bordeaux Soil

Karlex, the visionary behind Château Fillon, didn’t just want to make wine, he wanted to create something that tells a story. Walking the vines, he carries his family’s Haitian heritage with pride, honoring resilience and culture with every row of grapes.
The winery’s ethos? Rooted in tradition. Reimagined with purpose.
The result is a collection of wines that not only showcase Bordeaux’s terroir but also celebrate diversity in the wine world.
Each sip is a nod to where they come from—and a toast to where they’re going.
Meet the Wines of Château Fillon
Château Fillon crafts signature wines, each one a unique chapter in its growing legacy:
1. Sauvignon Blanc – The Crisp Chapter
This lively white is as refreshing as a sunny Bordeaux afternoon. Bright citrus and subtle minerality make it the perfect companion for seafood, soft cheeses, or those rooftop sunset moments where life feels just right.

2. Bordeaux Rouge 2022 – Bold Yet Elegant
With deep notes of black fruits and hints of chocolate, this wine is a conversation starter.
Supple, melted tannins give it a smooth, elegant mouthfeel that pairs beautifully with hearty dishes—or long, late-night talks with friends.
3. L’Apogée – The Peak of the Legacy
Meaning “the peak,” L’Apogée is the crown jewel of the Château Fillon lineup. Crafted with precision, it balances intensity with elegance, making it a must-try for collectors and wine lovers alike.
4. Life Is… Cabernet Sauvignon – A Tribute to Boldness
This isn’t just a Cab; it’s a statement. Deep, dark fruits meet refined structure for a wine that honors Bordeaux craftsmanship while embracing bold Haitian flair. It’s perfect for celebrations, date nights, or anytime you want to raise a glass to something big.

Why Château Fillon is More Than Just Wine
At its core, Château Fillon is about connection. It’s about gathering with friends over a bottle of Bordeaux Rouge, celebrating milestones with a glass of L’Apogée, or simply winding down with a chilled Sauvignon Blanc after a long day.
But it’s also about representation and breaking boundaries. Karlex’s journey from Haitian roots to Bordeaux vineyards shows that wine can be more than a tradition passed down—it can be a tradition reinvented.
When you sip a Château Fillon wine, you’re not just tasting Bordeaux—you’re tasting resilience, family, and passion.
