Introducing the New Era of RdV
Lost Mountain

Lorem ipsum dolor sit
Virginia’s acclaimed RdV Vineyards, created by Rutger de Vink, ushers in a new chapter as ‘Lost Mountain’; The estate, known for putting Virginia on the world wine map, has been acquired by the Bouygues family and joins their group of iconic French wineries, recently named Eutopia Estates *
In unison……In anticipation of this exciting transition, de Vink entrusted the estate to successors who cherish the same foundational values: family, exceptional products, respect for the land, and visionary thinking. Due to these shared values, a trusted relationship was established with the Bouygues family, facilitated by Pierre Graffeuille, their General Manager, who was already familiar with RdV’s world-class wines.

From RdV Vineyards to Lost Mountain
The renaming is a natural outcome of the purchase and a celebration of the new era. Converting RdV, Rutger de Vink’s initials, into ‘Lost Mountain’ pays tribute to the remarkable terroir of this ancient knoll once beloved by America’s founding father, George Washington.
Lost Mountain enters the Eutopia Estates family
The visionary brothers, Martin and Olivier Bouygues, developed one of France’s largest family groups, building their success on their father’s construction and telecoms businesses. They also inherited his passion for wine and agriculture, which came to fruition in 2006 with the purchase of their first winery, Château Montrose. Today, they oversee four exclusive French wine estates, a Cognac house, and a truffle farm.
