Caudalie

Having dreamt of creating a spa within Chateau Smith Haut Lafitte, Mathilde and Bertrand Thomas put their minds together to create the first Vinothérapie spa in 1999. Established in Bordeaux, France, they combined the revitalising effects of the hot springs water with their homegrown vine and grape extracts to create ingenious spa treatments. They gave themselves the name Caudalie, and went from strength to strength, making appearances in a select few Bordeaux pharmacies. The following year, they developed a team of researchers and added to their ever-growing product range.

Today, Caudalie uses the antioxidant properties of the grape and grapevine polyphenols to provide skin with an elite and refreshed feeling.
