It was founded in 1970 by Jean-Eugène Borie, who also owns the prestigious Château Ducru-Beaucaillou. The estate takes its name from the combination of the surnames of the two successive owners, Jean-Eugène Borie and his son, Bruno-Eugène Borie.

Château Lalande-Borie's vineyards cover around 30 hectares and are planted mainly with classic Bordeaux grape varieties, such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc. The vines are cultivated using environmentally-friendly methods, with particular emphasis on sustainable agriculture.
