GEOGRAPHICAL
Remarkably exposed on the south side of the famous Pomerol plateau, the terroir of Croix Toulifaut is situated between Château Beauregard in Pomerol and Château Figeac, Saint‐ Émilion 1er Grand Cru Classé.
 
SOIL TYPE
Sandy is on a ferruginous background with very large quantities of "clinker" hardpan whose influence is pleasantly felt in the aging of the great wines of Pomerol.
 
CHARACTER OF THE WINE
Advice from Michel Rolland, whose expertise as an oenologist is well known: elegance, finesse, velvety, the subtlety of the Croix Toulifaut have something discreetly feminine; it is, according to Jean‐Luc Pouteau, voted best sommelier in the world, "the Princess of Pomerol".
