Michel Théron, a Languedoc-born outsider who came to Bordeaux to study in 1988 and never left, has been farming these vines biodynamically since 2008, certified since 2012.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the cellar, mainly destemmed fruit — with a portion of whole bunches — macerates in concrete for 7–10 days before moving to a mix of barriques, 400-liter barrels, and foudres for 12 months. Around 25% new oak. No fining, no filtration. The structure is more serious than the price suggests — classic Left Bank architecture that drinks well young and earns 4–6 more years in the cellar.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e2021 was a difficult year for the Médoc broadly, but Théron's biodynamically farmed vines in the southern appellation — close to the moderating influence of the Gironde — came through largely unscathed. Graceful and expressive more than powerful.
