The taste is rich and concentrated but remains refined and mineral. Silky tannins, a fresh undertone, and a long, saline finish give the wine tension and elegance. This is a classic yet modern right-bank Bordeaux that impresses when young but will especially shine after several years of cellar aging. Drinking advice: from 2025, with potential until 2035–2040. Owners: Stéphane and Christine Derenoncourt. Stéphane is a renowned wine consultant in Bordeaux. The estate is located in Sainte-Colombe and has approximately 11 hectares of vineyards. Grapes: about 75–80% Merlot, 20–25% Cabernet Franc, with old vines (40–55 years). Soil: clay-limestone on hills – ideal for Merlot. Cultivation: sustainable, with biodynamic principles.
