picture of

Intense fruity, black berries. A fine combination of balance, density and elegance, creamy tannins revealing with an extremely harmonious aging potential. Reward: 92/100 Parker, 16.5 + / 20 J Robinson

Grilled or roasted meats, such as game, lamb, smoked duck breast and even some hearty tasting cheeses.

climate

Maritime climate, characterised by the close proximity to large bodies of water that moderate their temperatures. Maritime climate is often described as a "middle ground" between two extremes. Often subject to the viticultural hazards of excessive rain and humidity , it has distinct seasonal changes, usually not as drastic, with warm, rather than hot, summers and cool, rather than cold, winters.

soil

One of the most fragmented domaines in the Médoc with as many as 40 separate parcels of vines scattered throughout the Margaux appellation.

vinification

Cabernet Sauvignon 66% - Merlot 29% - Petit Verdot 5% with an average age of 30 years. Harvest in small baskets, manual and optical sorting, no crushing and the filling is done by gravity. Fermentation takes 29 days and the aging is done for 50% new barrels and 50% of first year. The oenologist Stéphane Derenoncourt is advising winemaker here.
