The château's vineyards are planted with Sémillon (80%) and Sauvignon Blanc (20%). Each year, 2-3 hectares of vines, which are considered too old, are cleared and the soil is left fallow for one year. Then it takes at least five years before the new planted vines begin producing grapes that can be used for wine production. The planting density is 6,600 plants per hectare. (2011-10)
