Description

Ref. JCS1037 - The family estate, with roots dating back to 1870, covers almost 28 hectares of vines, divided between two prestigious appellations:
1. AOC Sauternes: Covering 4.87 hectares, the Sauternes vines are bathed in a mild, humid climate that is ideal for producing exceptional sweet wines. Late harvests and noble rot give birth to golden nectars.

2. AOC Bordeaux: Most of the estate, 19.43 hectares, is dedicated to the Bordeaux appellation. Here, 16.86 hectares are reserved for red wines, while 2.57 hectares are devoted to white wines. Bordeaux's varied terroir makes for balanced, expressive wines.

3. 3.4375 hectares of land to be planted with rights

In the 1950s, the estate experienced remarkable growth. However, it was in the mid-1970s that the real revolution took place. An uncompromising approach to quality was undertaken, adopting resolutely modern winemaking and production methods. Each grape is pampered, each cuvée meticulously crafted to express the best of the terroir.

For 15 years, the owner has been committed to a policy of meticulous replanting. The vines, planted at high density, flourish in a natural balance. The management of the vineyard is guided by a profound respect for the environment, which has earned the estate High Environmental Value (HVE3) certification. The prestigious terroirs are thus preserved, and the resulting wines bear the imprint of this harmony with nature.

The main house, built of stone in the Gironde tradition, offers a generous living space of 350 m². The rooms, adorned with parquet flooring and fireplaces, exude authenticity and warmth. From the dining room, the uninterrupted view over the park adds a touch of serenity to this place steeped in history.

In addition to the farm buildings, two spacious 150 m² flats are reserved for employees. Although in need of some renovation, they are an integral part of the soul of this wine estate.
This estate, woven of passion and commitment, continues to produce exceptional wines that bear witness to the history and land that saw their birth.
