The overall experience unfolds with layers of complexity, creating a captivating and sensory-rich profile. La Croix de Boyd Cantenac, the distinguished second wine of Château Boyd Cantenac, a Grand Cru Classé 1855 in Margaux, is crafted with precision from carefully selected plots within the expansive vineyard. Encompassing 17 hectares with a planting density of 10,000 vines per hectare, this vineyard has adhered to sustainable pest control practices and abstained from the use of chemical fertilizers for over four decades. The meticulous winemaking process begins with a manual harvest, followed by a rigorous triple sorting of the grapes, both in the vineyard and within the confines of the cellar. Further enhancing the quality, the destemming process adds an extra layer of finesse to ensure only the finest fruit contributes to the creation of this exceptional wine.
