In 1872, Franciscan nuns set up an orphanage, with vine-growing as one of its main resources. Thanks to their investment, Château Crabitey, located in the heart of the Graves PDO in Portets, already enjoyed a fine reputation. To further develop the quality of the estate, Jean-Ralph de Butler joined in 1985 as an agricultural engineer. His son, Arnaud, succeeded him in 1999, and finally became owner of the Château in 2008 with his wife.
