Terroir and Technique
For their Vieilles Vignes bottling, the family utilizes rotary tanks to conduct a cold maceration of the juice with the skins, pre-fermentation, in order to amplify the aromatics.
The vineyards of Château Sainte-Marie cover two hills at higher elevations than is typical for the Bordeaux region, providing ideal sun exposure.
The Vieilles Vignes relies on vines that are, on average, 80 years old.
