L’Ilôt de Haut-Bergeron
Thanks to its location, this rather atypical terroir offers wines of great freshness where finesse and elegance are always present. Tasted young, they reveal a wide aromatic palette: citrus, lychee, vanilla and acacia blossom.

History
of the estate
A family-owned estate since 1939, Domaine de Grandmaison covers 19 hectares, including 4.75 hectares of white. Located in Léognan, it rests on siliceous gravel and clay-limestone soils. The Bouquier family practices sustainable viticulture and combines tank and barrel ageing to preserve aromatic complexity.
