The estate is located about twenty kilometers north of Carcassonne and its famous medieval city. Of the 125 hectares of the estate, 21 are devoted to vines, the rest is made up of natural areas (garrigue, woods). This is where the east and west winds meet. In turn, they bring the intense Mediterranean heat necessary for the southern grape varieties (Syrah and Grenache) and the Atlantic humidity allowing the oceanic grape varieties (Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Franc, Cot and Fer Servadou) to blossom fully. The quality of the grapes, the vinifications, the blending of the grape varieties and the aging of the wines make it possible to obtain the best balance between fruit and structure, roundness and complexity, intensity and elegance. The soil is calcareous and very often stony. Here you are in the middle of thyme, cistus, lavender, and a few holm oaks rise a little above the rest of the vegetation. The vine is the only cultivated plant to have found a place in this soil and this climate. The roots weave their way through the fossils of marine molluscs and seek as far away as possible the moisture needed to withstand summer droughts, while the leaves catch the sunlight to transform the raw sap into the sweet juice stored in each grape berry. The winds are almost always present, from the east or from the west. The altitude (up to 300 meters) brings the nighttime freshness contrasting with the daytime heat which results in complexity in the wines.
