Area under vine at the estate, from its technical sheet — it does not change from one vintage to the next. Each vintage’s blend, by contrast, departs from it: that figures on its own page. The shares published by the estate already total 100% even though it lists other grape varieties: for lack of a consistent breakdown, none are shown here.

Footprint, parcels and their split are measured on the Compagnie Médocaine’s own parcel survey; elevation, slope and aspect on the Mapbox terrain-rgb digital terrain model, derived from IGN’s RGE ALTI over France. Compare with the blend on the technical sheet, at the top of the page: the two answer different questions.
The POITEVIN vineyard comprises 41 hectares of AOC Médoc vines, on a terroir dominated by gravel rises. An exceptional terroir depends on respect for the environment, through the application of integrated pest management. All our facilities are designed with the preservation of nature in mind.
Alcohol, yield and vine age are those of the 2022 vintage; they vary from year to year. Only the area above stays stable from one vintage to the next.
