History: 2020, a vintage put into test: Mild winter for a very early bud burst & rainy spring with very diseases including mildew. Scorching summer without rain, flowering and veraison in good conditions and with strong peaks of heat, saving thunderstorms. Good levels of maturity in September. The harvest was early (about 10 days ahead).
Regional information: A terroir grouped together on a plateau of gravel typical of the Grands Crus of the Médoc. The homogeneity of this vineyard allows for particularly successful vintages.
Double guyot pruning.
Tillage, no grass cover.
Green work: disbudding, de-sucking, leaf stripping by hand to avoid grape injuries and have better precision.
The rather early harvest date must be chosen in order to find the right compromise between power, maturity, freshness.
Vinification: The vinifications were adapted on certain vats where the potential alcohol level was higher, mainly Merlot vats.
The Cabernet Sauvignon has been vinified classically, with significant extractions carried out at the start of fermentation and post-fermentation maceration at
27-28 ° C.
Reduced maceration temperatures (26 ° C) so as not to extract bitterness.
Little interventionist pump-over and load-shedding.
Aging of 30% of the volume in new barrels and 30% in barrels of 1 and 2 wines, for 12 months.
