Aquitaine, Gironde, Lugon-et-l`Île-du-Carnay, France

Ref. JCS1092 - Welcome to this family-run vineyard, where the tradition of Bordeaux viticulture has been perpetuated for four generations. Situated in the heart of the Bordeaux Superieur appellation d'origine contrôlée (AOC), this property extends over some 13.5 hectares of carefully cultivated vines. Since its beginnings, the vineyard has preserved and enriched family traditions, guaranteeing the quality and authenticity of the wines. Each generation has brought its own innovations and dedication, ensuring continuity in winemaking excellence.

The estate is equipped for all stages of winemaking. The farm buildings (totalling almost 700 m²) include cellars for vinification (concrete and stainless steel vats), ageing, packaging and storage, as well as a workshop of around 200 m² used, among other things, to house all the equipment needed to work the vines, from pruning to harvesting.

For over a hundred years, each generation has devoted its time and effort to cultivating the vines and producing top-quality wines; each has made its own unique contribution, enriching the family heritage and ensuring the continuity of its know-how.

The region's climate and soil, typical of the Bordeaux region, provide ideal conditions for wine-growing. The 13.5 hectares of vines benefit from a high-quality terroir, made up of clay-limestone, gravel and alluvial soils, which give the wines their complexity and aromatic richness. Traditional grape varieties such as Merlot, Malbec, Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc are grown here, each adding its own special touch to the blends.

Sustainable agriculture is practised on all of the estate's 13.5 hectares of vines, limiting the use of chemicals and promoting sustainable growing methods with a deep respect for nature and the terroir. Each parcel of vines is worked with care and attention, from winter pruning to manual harvesting, to guarantee the quality of the grapes.

A varied range of red wines is offered, each reflecting the unique character of the terroir and ancestral know-how. Each cuvée is crafted to fully express the potential of the grapes and reveal the typicity of the terroir. Whether it's an AOC Bordeaux, a Bordeaux Supérieur or a special cuvée, each wine tells a story, the story of a family passion and an unwavering commitment to quality.
