In 1878, Prosper Arbeau founded, with his son Jean, the “Arbeau Père et Fils” company, which aimed to market produce harvested in the region. Pierre Arbeau (1913-2002), who graduated from the Superior Commerce School of Toulouse, expanded the wine activity and the distillery. His efforts constituted a major growth in the company. In 1982, Pierre’s son, Jean-Claude Arbeau (1946-2004) became the managing director. He developed the bottling sector. From that time, the notoriety of the limited company has been growing in the whole region. In 2002, Géraud Arbeau became managing director and since 2005, his sister Anne Arbeau has joined him to run the company. Vignobles Arbeau not only markets a variety of red, white, and rose wines from the region, but also owns a winery, located in Labastide-Saint Pierre, to “vinify Southwestern grapes into red, rose and white wines from local producers who have been regular partners for years”.
