This terroir of strong clays on limestone rock gives the wine power, fleshiness, minerality, freshness and generosity.

The Pavie Macquin grape variety, predominantly Merlot, finds its raison d’être in its good suitability for strong clays. The molasses soils associated with limestone with asterias give power and tension to the wines and a deep flesh. The soils of old colluvium with the presence of silt will bring a little lightness, with always this mineral tension brought by the limestone.

Cabernet Franc will find its rightful place on soils made from limestone where the rock is outcropping, because the warming is faster there and this is where the grape variety excels in bringing its “backbone” and complexity to the blend.

2% of old Cabernet Sauvignon come to crown the whole.
