    Owner and history

    The Tesseron family has transitioned to more sustainable farming practices. Their vineyards are certified organic and biodynamic. They cover 82 hectares of the estate's 120 hectares. The poor soil allows them to produce excellent Cabernet Sauvignon wines.

    Vinification and aging

    - Hand-harvested and sorted at the winery
    - Winemaking takes place in three different vats (19th-century wood, concrete, and amphora)
