Planted contiguously around the Château, the 33 hectares of vineyard flourish under our undivided attention. A model of the French national action plan for the reduction of pesticide use (Ecophyto) the vines are cared for sustainably using short pruning, grass covering, de-budding, de-leafing and green harvesting if necessary. Late mechanical harvesting with the most recent tools ensures top quality selection during harvest. Considerable restructuring of the vineyard was initiated in 2000 to obtain a planting density of 5000 stocks per hectare.
