Our work

Over the months and cycles of the year, we select the most respectful methods for the land on which we work. We draw on the ancestral know-how that has been handed down to us while shaping our own techniques, year after year.

Organic experience in heritage

Fervent defenders of organic farming, and for years, we combine ecopasture, herbal medicine, total grassing, vegetal compost, natural rhythms of culture or even lunar cycles and are constantly improving our methods of work, without ever seeking to conform to the existing. This unstinting requirement is made possible by our passion of our expertises, and by a meticulous attention brought to each stage of the creation of our wines. We are committed to enriching biodiversity and preserving soil quality to create unforgettable AOP Saint-Emilion wines that are both organic, vegan and sulphite-free.

Our daily life at the Chateau

We share a common vision of viticulture, the values of winemakers and oenologists. Thanks to complementary skills and know-how, we perpetuate the independence of our domain, and the long-term perspective of our requirements.

From the choice of grape varieties to the conditions of cultivation, and throughout the process of winemaking and distribution of our wines, our work ethic is at the heart of our concerns.

Environment

Environmental monitoring is a separate item on the farm.

From March until the end of the harvest, Carine, our agronomist works every week to analyze the vines and soils. From a cross-reflection, we move forward patiently.

Equipment

The essence of agriculture without chemistry is to work manually or mechanically to create our wines.

Simple tools and complex know-how accompany our daily lives.

Ground

Our terroir was formed thousands of years ago by the melting of the glaciers of the central massif and the withdrawal of the Atlantic Ocean. The siliceous soil on a clay and gravel subsoil with a high iron oxide content is a local peculiarity of the Figeac and Pomerol terraces. This soil composition brings finesse and softness to our wines.

Wine

The richness of nature brings us everything we need for a natural vinification. Oenologist for more than 20 years, Nicolas accompanies us in our research. He shares his passion for taste, winemaking and maturing techniques.
