In a few words ...
Close to the prestigious Château Haut Brion, Château Picque Caillou extends its 20-hectare vineyard right on the doorstep of Bordeaux, the historic birthplace of the appellation. Under the decisive impetus of Paulin and Isabelle Calvet, this superb gravel terroir has been endowed with all the assets required to produce a great wine: optimization of vineyard data, refined plot management, vinification in keeping with the terroir and the vintage, drastic selections... The result is a wine of great lineage, remarkable for its balance and delicacy, and highly representative of the values of the prestigious Pessac-Léognan appellation. James Suckling ( 91 )
