    Owner and history

    The 18.7 hectares of vines stretch across the deep, ancient gravelly, clayey, or white soils characteristic of the Pomerol appellation. The Merlot (91%), Cabernet Franc (6%), and Petit Verdot (3%) grape varieties thrive on plots situated at altitudes of up to 38 meters. The Moueix family emphasizes winemaking techniques that reveal the full complexity typical of Bordeaux wines.

    - Winemaking in temperature-controlled stainless steel and concrete tanks
    - Gentle and controlled macerations and extractions
