    Owner and history

    Jean-Hubert Delon carefully tends his distinctive vines, which average around fifty years old. This exceptional terroir owes its quality to its microclimate and its gravelly-sandy and gravelly-clay subsoils. The vines are planted with 61% Cabernet Sauvignon, 21% Merlot, and 16% Cabernet Franc.

    Vinification and aging

    Aged for approximately 16 months in 85% new oak barrels.
