Vineyard Notes

Dispersed over 80 hectares of Saint-Julien and split into several groups, our vineyard reflects all the richness and diversity of the appellation. Within this, to the northwest of the appellation, are the 20 hectares of Chateau Moulin Riche, forming a single block for a unique expression of the terroir. Planted Grape Varieties: 63% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Merlot, 7% Petit Verdot, 5% Cabernet Franc. Average Vine Age 38 years.


Winemaking

As grapes made their way to the vat house, Isabelle Davin (Oenologist) and Didier Thomann (Cellar Master) were thrilled with the bright fruit aromas. Revealed by the first pre-fermentation cold macerations, these bright aromatics are just as vivid in the wine today. Gentle vinifications were carried out for individual plots to better manage this vintage and perfectly master the tannins.


Ageing

Our wines are aged exclusively in French oak barrels for 18 months. Particular care is taken in the choice of our barrels to obtain subtle oak aromas in harmony with the Léoville Poyferré style. A perfect osmosis between the wood and the wine must occur. In order for this to happen, wines undergo their malolactic fermentation in barrel, resulting in the stability and suppleness of our wines.
