Highly reputed for three centuries and an exporter of wines to the United States since the early 19th century, this vineyard has remained in the same family since it was bought from a Dutch trader back in 1783.

Over the years, Vignobles Sevenet has grown with the addition of Château Cabanes and Château Boirac, properties belonging to other branches of the family.

In 1783, Joseph Brannens bought CHATEAU TOUMILON from a Dutch wine trader. Joseph Brannens had five children and he set all of them up in the surrounding area.

In 1807 Charles Joseph, his son, was 18 years old, and set off with a consignment of wine in barrels for Philadelphia where he worked with his father's importer. He came back in 1816 and founded the first navigation company on the Garonne River to use paddleboats.

A few years later, Château Cabanes, a property belonging to some cousins of the family, was merged with CHATEAU TOUMILON.
More recently, Château Boirac, just 2 kilometres to the south, completed the properties of the Sevenet family and provided them with a complementary type of soils.

Today, it is the great great grand-daughter of Charles-Joseph, Marie-France Sevenet-Lateyron, who watches over the destinies of Château Toumilon, Château Cabanes and Château Boirac.
