A stream runs through It

There are many complicated things in life. But getting from Pauillac to Saint-Estèphe is not one of them.
Indeed nothing is simpler than joining the two municipalities! To find yourself in Pauillac from Saint-Estèphe, all you have to do is cross a stream, the jalle du Breuil. This one separates in particular the vineyards of Cos Labory and Lafite Rotschild, distant of barely a hundred meters and yet located in Pauillac!
Once crossed this jalle, another world opens to the eyes of the onlooker. The visitor discovers a rugged, curved relief and undertakes a gentle climb to the Cos (the hill of pebbles), cradle of Cos Labory and Cos d'Estournel!

Harvest 2022: almost at the end

The harvest ends soon but the vinification has begun. In particular the pumping over (see photo). Low yields this year but a great vintage in perspective. Indeed, if the quantity is not there, the quality is there according to the statements of the winegrowers from Saint-Estèphe. And we can trust them, they are the ones who know best the terroir, their vines and the result that the two together give, that is to say the wine.

Les vendanges ont démarré

Le ban est ouvert !
La campagne de récolte du millésime 2021 a débuté ce lundi 27 septembre.
Certains châteaux comme Montrose et Cos d'Estournel ont entamé les vendanges un peu plus tôt la semaine dernière sur des plus petites parcelles.
Comme chaque année, c'est le cépage Merlot qui est ramassé en premier.
Puis suivront le Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc et en dernier Le Petit Verdot qui doit son nom au fait qu'il reste vert longtemps c'est à dire qu'il arrive à maturité tardivement.
