In a few words ...
The vineyard is located in the heart of the St Julien terroir. On one of the most beautiful gravelly hilltops in the Garonne region, facing the Gironde, the clay-gravel subsoil perfectly regulates the vagaries of the year's climate. Ploughing is traditional, with no weeding or herbicides. The vines are planted mainly with Cabernet Sauvignon (74%), Merlot (23%) and Cabernet Franc (3%). Vintage blend: 85% Cabernet-Sauvignon - 15% Merlot
