The vineyard of Château Beau-Séjour Bécot is composed of a thin layer of clayey limestone soil lying on a deep substratum of starfish limestone.

Château Bel-Air Marquis d’Aligre in Margaux is run by the redoutable Jean-Pierre Boyer who at 86 years old (in 2019) has produced 69 vintages in his life, all of them at the same propriété. He remembers helping his dad making the legendary 1947!
What is even more remarkable is that during all these years almost nothing has changed at Bel-Air Marquis d’Aligre: the vines, the winery, the way Mr Boyer makes the wine, while everything else has changed around him, as he likes to point out.
The one and only notable adjustment was the oak barrels which he got rid of in the 1950s, as he regarded them as mere marketing gimmicks and reverted to cement tanks for both fermentation and ageing.
