Golf is above all a family passion among the Mourgue d'Algues. The 4th generation of golfers is on the way and already more than 80 national and international titles have been won on golf courses. Pioneer and visionary, Gaëtan, the father, has always worked for the development of golf (creation of the Lancôme Trophy, construction of the Arcangues (64), Limères (21) and Joyenval (78) courses, creation of the first World Course Guide Golf with Rolex- "The 1000 Best Golfs in the World"). Cécilia his wife, has one of the most beautiful French female amateur winners and has represented Sweden and then France on numerous occasions during the World Championships. As for his son André, after having drawn a draw with Tiger Woods during an amateur meeting and an American experience in the development of golf complexes in California, he joined his father. In 2002, they traveled around France in search of an exceptional site. Their idea is to develop a natural, fun and accessible golf for all types of golfers to associate it with the French art of living.

Thus the golf spreads over 102 magnificent hectares in a valley bordered by hundred-year-old oaks, surrounded by vineyards and located 10km from the village of Saint-Emilion, classified World Heritage of Humanity by UNESCO. The choice of the architect, the American Tom Doak, who is one of the 5 Best Architects in the World, made it possible to carry out this ambition. With already 5 courses in the World Top 100 out of 30 achievements, it is a genius with the exceptional ability to offer routes that are both fun for beginners and strategic for experienced golfers.
