WINEMAKER NOTES

In 1962, this ancient vineyard, reduced to a few old and poorly tended vines, was completely restored with the greatest care by the present owner. The company also owns Château Le Meynieu and Domaine de la Ronceray, both in AOC Saint-Estèphe.

TASTING NOTES

This wine is powerful with melting tannins and much appreciated for its remarkable finesse and delicate bouquet.

VINEYARD

  • Soil: clayey chalk and stony subsoil
  • Average Age of Vines: 30 years
  • Size: 6 hectares

VITICULTURE

With a wonderful exposition and planted with prime stocks, the vineyard is most carefully tended and benefits from accomplished methods of cultivation.

VINIFICATION

The harvest, vinified in the traditional way, is aged in oak cask and put into bottles which are kept in underground cellars, admirably suited for aging.
