Brothers Samuel and Vincent Feuillade established the estate in 2002, creating a small domaine in the northern part of the appellation. Located in Brouzet-lès-Quissac, this is a particularly cool site, with gravelly soils made up of limestone fragments. The vineyards benefit from both generous sunshine and very cool nights. In short, the domaine enjoys an outstanding terroir, one of the finest in the Pic Saint-Loup appellation. The wines are wonderfully fresh and juicy, with a distinct mineral character.
