What began as a project of three friends: the late Marcel Lapierre, Marie Lapierre and Jean-Claude Chanudet. The trio purchased this 13 hectare parcel upon realizing that, despite being designated outside the cru status, it held prestige beyond title. Planted originally in 1914 in 3 parcels, it is complimented by a mixed soil composition of clay/granite and calcareous-sand. They expanded the plantings and combined the wines to create a harmonious (and amazing) definition of the entire plot.

Following the organic practices they began so long ago, they tend their vines without chemicals or inorganic fertilizers. Marie Lapierre and Jean-Claude Chanudet have been conducting the work to new heights, establishing improvements and maintaining the "old school" practices in the vineyards and cellars of this centenary Chateau.
