About

▸ 2.3-ha gravel parcel.

▸ Made for beef bourguignon.

▸ Quietly serious.

 

Old-vine Merlot and Cabernet Franc grow on iron-rich crasse de fer under gravel once part of the Isle riverbed. Malolactic and 16 months in Limousin and Allier oak shape firm tannins and blackberry weight—enough Right Bank detail to fuel table talk.

Just 2.3 hectares of 55-year vines sit on gravel over iron-oxide crasse de fer in Lalande-de-Pomerol. Nicolas Lassagne lets malolactic run in new French oak, then ages the blend 16 months for extra grip. The estate reached HVE Level 4 in 2024, underscoring its low-impact mindset.
