ARTEVINO - Sélection éphémère, Médoc Cru Bourgeois, AOC Médoc, Rouge, 2018

The property benefits from the influences of the Atlantic Ocean on the one hand, and the presence of the Gironde estuary on the other, offering favourable weather conditions for the development of the grape varieties and the ripeness of the grapes. The vineyard grows on gravel worthy of the best terroirs of the Médoc. Today, the Château estate is made up of 90 hectares of AOC Médoc grouped around the estate, of which 53 hectares are planted with vines that currently produce wine.
