Winery | The 18-hectare estate is situated in Civrac en Medoc on the left side of the Gironde estuary, approximately 70 km northwest of Bordeaux. The estate is managed sustainably and holds the Haute Valeur Environmental (HVE3) certification, which officially recognises the environmental performance of winegrowers, including biodiversity conservation, plant protection strategies, managed fertiliser use and water resource management. The estate is primarily planted with the Bordeaux varieties of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, with smaller parcels of Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot and Malbec. The 25-year-old vines are planted at a density of 6,500 per hectare on clay-limestone ridges. These slightly oily soils constitute a balanced soil; combining the clay's freshness and humidity with the limestone's filtering properties. The fruit benefits from the temperate climate and the sunny exposure of the plots. The grapes are harvested after reaching optimum maturity levels, following tastings and oenological analysis. |
