The 2025 vintage
is defined by precision and control.
Early budbreak, combined with the vine’s naturally moderate fertility, led to low yields, promoting remarkable concentration and great purity of expression.
Flowering was swift and perfectly uniform, taking place under ideal conditions and revealing strong qualitative potential.
From mid-June onward, a prolonged period of drought set in.
Thanks to soils that had been deeply replenished in previous vintages, the vines demonstrated exemplary resilience.
Veraison, both early and even, progressed smoothly, ensuring homogeneous ripening of the grapes.
The summer, alternating between bright days and cool nights, provided optimal conditions for slow and balanced maturation.
The grapes retained outstanding aromatic freshness, with finely textured tannins and naturally harmonious balance.
From August 20, analyses confirmed the vintage’s precocity, supported by vibrant acidity and moderate alcohol levels.
Late-August rainfall, which had no impact on the small, concentrated berries, allowed harvesting under typically Bordeaux weather conditions.
Picking took place from September 8 to 25, with a confidential yield of 25 hl/ha.
Vinifications proceeded with great fluidity, favoring gentle extraction and macerations not exceeding 20 to 25 days, in service of tannin finesse.
The wines reveal a deep color, brilliant aromatic complexity, precise fruit, and remarkable freshness, supported by silky tannins.
Combining density and elegance, the 2025 vintage asserts a classic, refined Bordeaux profile—gracefully powerful and unexpectedly so, given the decidedly luminous nature of the year.
