The process

From the row to the bottle

  1. 01

    The pick

    Grapes are hand picked. Only the fruit that will carry Appellation Saint-Émilion Grand Cru Contrôlée is kept.

  2. 02

    The ferment

    Fermentation lasts between 7 and 10 days.

  3. 03

    The wood

    The wine ages in smaller oak vats for 14 to 18 months, so the oak stays a slight influence. Newer oak and older oak are blended.

  4. 04

    The bottle

    Then a minimum of one year in bottle before it is offered.
