High density, biodynamically tended vines worked by their own horses, situated on the sandy, gravelly plateau of Sénéjac near Le Pian-Médoc. The extraction is very delicate by occasional pigeage, and the wine is aged for 18 months in sandstone amphoras as well as new (10%) to 7yo 300 and 500ltr barrels (rather than the traditional 225ltr).
It would be difficult to find a purer fruited wine (using older/bigger barrels and low sulphur really help) which mingle black and red fruits, with a dynamism, freshness and very digestible quality, and fine tannins on the finish.
