- South-facing slopes resting on expansive clay and offering plenty of water regulation; the wines here are characterised by their roundness and density, their power and length; Merlots reign supreme here;
- A gravelly outcrop that forms the top of the hillside; the grapes ripen early here; the wines are complex and elegant; it’s the perfect terroir for Cabernets Francs and Sauvignons;
- An additional north-facing clay-gravel slope which has proved a revelation in warmer years; the Cabernet Francs really stand out here;
- A clay-loam plateau with soil crusts that stretches out towards the village of Néac, where the wines are bold and well structured, particularly the merlots.
- Merlots (67%) and cabernets francs (30%) draw all their complexity from this terroir, easily reaching a perfect and high-quality state of ripeness.
