Nestled in the heart of Pessac-Léognan, this historic estate, one of the oldest in Bordeaux, embodies eight centuries of winemaking tradition and excellence.
- Terroir : Deep gravel and clay-limestone soils, where rounded pebbles capture the warmth of the sun to sculpt wines of a distinctive minerality.
- Vinification : Meticulous aging in oak barrels, balancing respect for the fruit with a silky structure, under the guidance of a team devoted to equilibrium.

To the eye – A garnet robe with tawny reflections, dense and luminous, like an antique velvet unfurled beneath the light.
On the nose – First aromas of wild blackberry and candied blackcurrant, then notes of cedar, blonde tobacco, and a saline touch, like a breeze from the Graves.

Serve at 16–18°C in a Bordeaux glass to release its full complexity.
