The most unique terroir in the appellation has a layer of very fine aeolian sand (1.5m on the highest part of the slope) over tuffeau, almost like a dune sitting on limestone bedrock. Vinified in concrete vats and aged for a year in foudres, the 0.87ha of 55yo vines yield a wine with great heart and the most velvety tannins (a typical feature of the sandy soils), the weight of red and black fruits is perfectly balanced by a very long saline finish. For drinking now to 2030.
