The story
La viticoltura nell'area risale all'epoca romana e si è sviluppata intensamente nel medioevo grazie alla posizione sulla via di pellegrinaggio verso Santiago de Compostela; la giurisdizione e le tradizioni locali, come la Jurade, hanno contribuito a costruire la fama dei vini di Saint-Émilion.

Production philosophy
Valorizzare il legame tra territorio, pratiche tradizionali e qualità enologica: l'identità di Saint-Émilion si fonda sulla ricerca dell'espressione del terroir nei vini rossi e sul mantenimento di standard qualitativi attraverso un sistema di classificazione locale.
Terroir and vineyards
Situata nella Gironda, nella regione Nouvelle-Aquitaine, a est di Bordeaux (Right Bank), l'area combina suoli argillo-calcarei e collinari che favoriscono la coltivazione di Merlot e Cabernet Franc e una forte frammentazione dei cru.
