Vineyard notes: "Château Montlabert has 21 hectares dedicated to producing its Grand Vin, Château Montlabert, and its second wine, La Croix de Montlabert. The plot of land adjoining the family home, used for the production of the Grand Vin, is planted with 80% merlot and 20% cabernet franc, growing in deep sandy-gravel soil with a clay subsoil. The soil cuts taken during the recent construction of the cellar reveal veins of blue clay on the surface similar to those found at the appellation's prestigious neighbours and which are typical of the great merlot terroirs."
