The combination of traditional methods and modern techniques, including integrated vineyard management, manual harvesting, temperature-controlled vatting, parcel-by-parcel vinification and 12 months' barrel ageing (almost half of which is renewed each year), has resulted in a decade of constant improvement in the quality of this wine, which was already recognized as a Cru Bourgeois Supérieur in the 1978 classification.
