Grape varieties : reds : 60% Cabernet-Sauvignon, 30% Merlot Noir, 8% Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot and Côt Malbec 2%. Whites : Sauvignon 65%, Sémillon 35%.
The entire harvest is done by hand and the white wine is mature for 30% in new barrels for 10 months for white, and 18 months for red.

Red wines are full of sap, well-built, with a very generous bouquet.
