            [Notes2] => This 20 hectare estate, a little over 3 kilometres east of Saint-Émilion, is planted on a clay-limestone slope thanks to which the northern and eastern parcels enjoy perfect morning sunshine. Merlot (75%), Cabernet Franc (15%) and Cabernet Sauvignon (10%) vines are planted and average 25 vyears old. The vineyard work is done in a sustainable way. Soils are ploughed in order to ensure deeper root systems; green harvest, leaf-cropping, and harvests are done by hand.

About this product +

Viticulture >

This 20 hectare estate, a little over 3 kilometres east of Saint-Émilion, is planted on a clay-limestone slope thanks to which the northern and eastern parcels enjoy perfect morning sunshine. Merlot (75%), Cabernet Franc (15%) and Cabernet Sauvignon (10%) vines are planted and average 25 vyears old. The vineyard work is done in a sustainable way. Soils are ploughed in order to ensure deeper root systems; green harvest, leaf-cropping, and harvests are done by hand.
