This means that the estate has been cultivating its vines for almost 195 years. It currently owns 21 hectares, vinifies its wines and vintages the best years.

The wines are aged in cellars dug straight into the chalk, with some of the galleries dating back to Gallo-Roman times, when the Aquitanian poet Ausonius celebrated the vine and Emperor Probus granted Gaul the right to plant vines. These cellars, which extend for some 3 kilometers and overhang the house, are pierced by essors-sort of skylights equipped at their feet with an inclined reflector that reflects light back into the galleries.
