Stéphane Derenoncourt
obtained this estate in 1999 as a sort of ‘laboratory’ for his consultancy activities.
He is renowned worldwide for his knowledge and consultancy especially
concerning lime-clay terroirs, mainly on the right back with St. Emilion as a
reference. With his advice, he raised the quality of the wines from von
Neipperg, Ch. Clos Fourtet, Ch. Pavie
Macquin, Ch. Beauséjour Duffau, Dom. de Chevalier, Ch. Prieuré Lichine and other chateaus to the top. On his
own estate Domaine. de l’A in St. Colombe, he increased the plant density,
lowered the yields and used 50% new oak barrels. The result is that Dom. de l’A
exceeds its appellation and now belongs to the outsiders of its region based on
its superb quality.
