    Owner and history

    This 4.5-hectare vineyard is located on the high plateau of Pomerol and comprises three types of soil: clayey gravel, sandy-clay gravel, and gravelly sand. Merlot makes up half of the blend, complemented by Cabernet Franc (here called Bouchet). These grape varieties originated from a pre-phylloxera massal selection.

    Vinification and aging

    Aged for 15 months in barrels, one-third of which are new.
