About the estate:
Éric Duffau demonstrates that Bordeaux grape varieties harvested at optimal ripeness, carefully vinified, and aged with restraint produce impeccable wines at an excellent price point across all three colors. The clay-based terroirs on limestone subsoils, located primarily in Génissac and Moulon, impart their full range of flavors to the wines, but slightly excessive oak can mask the fruit’s natural character.
