This property, acquired in 1954 by the Ducourt family has always been known for the quality of its sweet white wines. Planted with only
white varietals on clay and limestone soils, it has two great attributes: proximity to running water and good exposure to the sun. A fluctuation between hot days and cool nights therefore intensifies the aromatic expression of the grapes. This is great white-wine terroir typical of this part of Entre-Deux-Mers.
