The 2018 vintage is interpreted here with great intelligence: the fruit shines brightly, with a brilliance in the perfume (cherry, citrus, liquorice notes) that is not so frequent. The winemaker has extracted only the good tannins from the grapes, which allows the wine to be tasted wonderfully from its earliest youth, with a jubilant finesse and smoothness. But it can and does age, you should know that!

Technique

Viticulture

The property is located on the slopes of Puisseguin, 9 km from St-Emilion. The average age of the vineyard is 35 years. The clay-limestone soil, similar to that found in Saint-Emilion, provides the vines with a good supply of water, ideal during dry periods. The property extends over a 25-hectare green area, where the vines are planted alongside numerous trees, hedges and a pond. The practice of sustainable agriculture on the 13 hectare vineyard encourages the development of local biodiversity, a real concern for the estate. Bird nesting boxes have been installed.

Oenology

The harvest is carefully brought to the winery in small stainless steel bins. It is sorted on a succession of latest-generation autovibrating tables. The best of the grapes are then put into vats for a first cold maceration, before being aged in wood. Consultant oenologist: Michel Rolland.
