Clos de L'Oratoire

Clos de L'Oratoire

Clos de l'Oratoire, nestled on the northeast slope of Saint-Émilion, covers some 13 hectares. Its unique terroir, composed of Fronsac molasse with a sandy subsoil and clay subsoil, is particularly well-suited to Merlot, which accounts for 80% of the grape varieties planted.

Meticulous care is taken throughout the year to pRéserver the exceptional qualities of this vineyard.

Vinification takes place exclusively in temperature-controlled wooden vats. Wood, a noble, living material, harmonizes perfectly with the wine, allowing it to reveal all its richness of color and flavor.

Each vat is treated individually according to its characteristics, with moderate temperatures and very slow punching down, scrupulously respecting the raw material.

Available in imperfect

The care we take when receiving wines in our cellars enables us to detect bottles with imperfections (dirty or faded labels, damaged capsules, etc.). In such cases, they are systematically set aside and never put online! Our preparation team selects only bottles with perfect presentation for your orders!

It is these bottles with slight external defects that we present to you in the "Existe en imparfaite" selection. These bottles are, of course, of "irreproachable" gustatory quality, but suffer from slight defects on the label or cap. We therefore offer them at a preferential price, making the pleasure of tasting them even more affordable.
