Saint-Estèphe, located in the northern part of the Médoc region, is known for producing powerful and structured wines with a distinctive minerality. The terroir here differs slightly from its southern neighbors, with a higher proportion of clay in the soils. This contributes to wines that often require significant cellaring to fully mature.

Minerality: The clay-rich soils impart a distinctive minerality to the wines, adding a layer of complexity and a sense of place.
Longevity: These wines are built for aging and can often improve significantly over decades in the cellar.
