Informations
The Pontoise estate belonged until 1859 to the family of Theresia Cabarrus, wife of Tallien and a witness at Napoleon's wedding. Benefiting from the microclimate along the banks of the Gironde estuary, the vineyard is planted on deep gravel soils in the commune of Saint Seurin and is predominantly composed of Cabernet Sauvignon, the emblematic grape variety of the great Médoc crus.
