Three Terroirs Drive Depth

The estate's diverse clay soils across three distinct Pomerol terroirs provided crucial water regulation through the summer heat stress. Strategic parcel selection proved vital, allowing optimal harvest timing for each soil type despite challenging conditions. The wine displays remarkable complexity, weaving together dark fruit power with fresh minerality from the varied terroirs.
