ORIGIN-TERROIR
\nThe first records of the foundation of the Seigneurie the Picon wine domaine date back to 1070. The domaine has changed families very few times over the past 9 centuries which attests to the strong traditions of its heritage. The vineyards have gradually been replanted over the years and the vat house has been fully renovated and fitted with modern vinification facilities. Ch\u00e2teau Picon is situated in the commune of Eynesse, near to the Sainte-Foy-la-Grancle bastide. This beautiful 81 hectare wine domaine lies on a plateau overlooking the Dordogne valley. It benefits from an exceptional terroir composed of gravel soils on the surface and clay-limestone beneath the surface. The vines have an average age of 35 years and are primarily south-facing. The adjoining vine parcels surround the ch\u00e2teau and the cellars. Ch\u00e2teau Picon is Sustainable Agriculture certified. It is committed to a respectful and sustainable approach to the environment in order to ensure optimum quality.<\/p>\n
