Description

One of our favorites from the 2021 vintage. The subtle salinity and freshness imparted by the estate's terroir perfectly complement the density and depth of the delicately spiced black fruit. A truly beautiful wine!

Notes and pairings

Notes and pairings

Tasting notes

Opt for a tournedos with foie gras sauce. The power of this wine, combined with the aromas of the foie gras, is a perfect match.

Food & wine pairings

Pigeon rôti au jus de carcasse corsé, carré d'agneau de lait en croûte de sauge, quasi de veau aux girolles, tournedos de bœuf poêlé aux échalotes confites, ou ris de veau braisés.

Le vignoble est situé sur l'un des meilleurs terroirs de Saint-Émilion, la Grande Côte. Les 11 hectares de vignes reposent sur différentes parcelles géologiques. L'une recouverte d'un sol argilo-calcaire et l'autre d'un sol sablo-argileux, elles accueillent respectivement 78 % de merlot et 22 % de cabernet franc.

Owner and history

The vineyard is located on one of the best terroirs of Saint-Émilion, the Grande Côte. The 11 hectares of vines are planted on different geological plots. One is covered with clay-limestone soil and the other with sandy-clay soil; these plots are planted with 78% Merlot and 22% Cabernet Franc, respectively.

Vinification and aging

The vineyards are 90% cultivated using organic and biodynamic methods. The harvest at the château is longer to ensure that the best, perfectly ripe grapes are picked. The grapes that are then transformed into wines mature for over 18 months.

The team's opinion

Le millésime 2021 rappelle les grands classiques bordelais d'antan, où la tension et la sapidité l'emportent sur la richesse solaire. Si sa texture déliée et son fruit croquant le rendent séduisant dès sa prime jeunesse après une légère aération, sa race calcaire lui permettra de vieillir harmonieusement sur 12 à 20 ans (2026–2045+).
