About the estate:
When Jean-Mary and Catherine Le Bihan took over the family farm, they set their sights on the hillsides of Duras. It was a wise decision, as they have elevated the estate to rank among the best in the Southwest. In this appellation that is struggling to gain recognition, the estate uses standard grape varieties to craft original wines that are enjoyable when young or built for aging, such as the superb Perrette and the 2014 Noisetiers, which we tasted from a magnum. Clémence, one of their daughters, has joined them.
