Nestled on the Pomerol plateau, this family estate has embodied Bordeaux elegance since its acquisition by the Moueix family in 1950.
- Terroir : Gravel and deep clay over an iron-rich subsoil, a terroir that imparts to the wines their distinctive minerality and silky structure.
- Vinification : Hand-harvested grapes, aged in French oak barrels, with a constant pursuit of purity for cuvées of remarkable precision.
