Owner and history

Located south of the Saint-Émilion appellation, the vineyard benefits from exceptional terroir between the hills of Château Pavie and Château Ausone. The 38 hectares of vines are divided into three distinct parcels: the plateau on limestone soil, the south/southwest-facing slope with clay soil, and the foot of the slope on sandy soil. The grape varieties are 75% Merlot and 25% Cabernet Franc.

Vinification and aging

Recently renovated, the vats boast exceptional technology and aesthetics. The winery comprises 20 inverted, truncated conical vats. This new installation allows for highly precise plot-by-plot vinification. The château's wines are aged for 14 to 16 months.
