The origins of this Château date back to the 18th century, but it is only since its acquisition in 1952 by new owners that this Château has achieved notoriety, being classified as a Cru Bourgeois in 1932, promoted to the rank of Exceptional in the 2003 classification and finally proposed in 2009 for classification as a potential 4th Cru Classé.
The terroir is carried by a gravelly hilltop on a clay-limestone subsoil, a character and a guarantee of exceptional qualities.
The vineyard extends over approximately 65 ha in the commune of St Estèphe, Château thus benefiting from this prestigious appellation.
This is a Haut Médoc Classé St Estèphe wine. The grape varieties are 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc.
The grapes are harvested exclusively by hand and the wine is aged in new barrels.
This is a wine to be consumed at room temperature after optimal cellaring, verified year after year.
The wine has a sumptuous, deep, intense purplish color. When brought to our nose, vanilla, hazelnut and dark chocolate aromas immediately emerge. The fruit, small red and black berries, is a little more discreet. On the palate, the attack is voluminous and the body full-bodied. The balance between power and freshness is perfect, thanks to a lovely tension. The tannins are firm and well chiselled. They will require a little ageing to develop a silky patina. The finish, with vanilla aromas, leaves a soft sensation on the palate.
