    Owner and history

    Located in the heart of the Médoc region of Bordeaux, the Pauillac appellation is renowned for having some of the best soils for viticulture. The dominant grape variety in the vineyard is Cabernet Sauvignon at 65%, followed by Merlot at 30%, Cabernet Franc at 3%, and Petit Verdot at 2%. The Pichon Baron hill, a great terroir already recognized and in production in 1694, still constitutes the majority of the blend for the grand vin today.
