The property

The vineyard
Château Vieux Maillet has a vineyard of 8.65 hectares, planted on a gravelly and sandy terroir with clayey molasse soils typical of Pomerol.

Following the harvest, the grapes undergo a double selective sorting (manual sorting and densimetric bath). The alcoholic fermentation is carried out in thermo-regulated vats and barrels. Post-fermentation maceration of 10 to 15 days. Total vatting of about one month. The aging lasts approximately 14 months in barrels (40% new barrels) and amphorae.
