Grape Variety:
The estate has 48 hectares under vine, planted with Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. The vineyard dominates a high plateau with well-exposed slopes. 70 plots surround the Château, allowing for a ‘parcellaire’ approach. At the summit there is a deep layer of Günzian gravel overlying the clay and limestone bedrock of Saint-Estèphe. Here, the Cabernet Sauvignon thrives on the free draining soils whilst Merlot dominates on the lower slopes with heavier clay soils. The plantings contain many old vines, averaging 30 years of age.
Hints of liquorice and golden tobacco on the nose, before opening up to both fruity (redcurrant, blackberry) and foral (iris) notes. Thee palate is smooth and syrupy, reminiscent of raspberry jelly. Well-balanced with a savoury fnish revealing slightly grainy tannins, which gives the wine energy and great length, precision and sweetness.
