Terroir

The vines grow on clay-limestone and tuffeau soils on the mid-slope of the Benais hillside. This terroir rests on the middle part of the Turonian formation and is covered by a layer of clay ranging in thickness from 50 centimeters to 1 meter, rich in micaceous chalk particles. The Cabernet Francs, averaging 25 to 60 years old, are southwest-facing.

Harvest

Manual, with rigorous sorting.

Winemaking

Fermentation takes place with indigenous yeasts. The vinification is gentle, similar to infusion, and is carried out without excessive winemaking additives. The wine is then aged in barrels or demi-muids, generally for a period of 6 to 18 months depending on the vintage.
