Terroir : our vineyard is composed of 30 hectares, most of them situated on the Garonne gravel's hill, which makes the reputation of the wines of Grand Poujeaux.
The gravel is very beneficial for the grapevines for the following reasons:
It ensures an excellent natural drainage and acts as a natural heat reflector from the sun on the grapes. It allows roots to penetrate deep in the earth, revealing the varying characteristics of the layers of the terroir. Furthermore as a meager soil, gravel causes the vines to produce fewer but more concentrated berries, which is good for the quality of the future wines.
