Situated on the right bank of the Garonne River, Clos La Petite Croix plays a vital role in supporting the emerging growers of the Lalande-de-Pomerol AOC. The vineyard benefits from a unique combination of clay, gravel, and sand, along with a favorable microclimate created by the nearby Dordogne River, making it ideal for cultivating grapes. The estate primarily produces Merlot and Cabernet Franc, resulting in the celebrated Clos La Petite Croix Lalande de Pomerol vintage. Recently, Pierre opened a tasting room, inviting wine enthusiasts to experience the charm of this well-preserved estate.
