This small estate, Chateau Lafleur shares history with the property across the road, Chateau Le Gay situated in the locality of Chateau Petrus, Both part of the property purchased by the Greloud family and divided among the sons into two properties, the Domain de Lafleur section eventually inherited by Andre Robin who imprinted on Lafleur in the mid 18th century.

In 1946 the sisters Marie and Therese Robin inherited both Lafleur and Le Gay, and ran both estates for nearly 40 years until Therese Robin's death. Allegedly reclusive characters, the sisters were uninterested in the growing fame of Lafleur, preferring to remain in the shadow of Chateau Petrus. In 1981 the longstanding distributors of Lafleur the Libourne merchant Etablissements Jean-Pierre Moueix handled management for Marie Robin.

Upon the death of Marie Robin in 2001, Jacques and Sylvie Guinaudeau took charge of the estate.
