Located in St Christophe des Bardes in the east of the St Emilion appellation, in the extension of Trottevieille and Troplong-Mondot, the estate was bought in 2000 by Sylviane Garcin Cathiard, owner since 1991 of Château Haut-Bergey in Léognan and sister of Daniel Cathiard, owner of Smith Haut-Lafitte. The 17 ha vineyard extends over clay-limestone soils on limestone bedrock. It forms a magnificent amphitheatre facing south towards the Dordogne valley. The grape varieties are Merlot (85%) and Cabernet Franc (15%).
