The plot is located in the hamlet of Faurie, just several hundred meters north of the Saint-Emilio village itself. The vineyard is split between the Faurie plot, close to the cellar, featuring sandy and iron oxide soils, and other plots, including 100 year old vines in the Saint-Christophe des Bardes village, based on clay and chalky soils.

The vineyard has refrained from the use of pesticides for years, there is a layer of grass between the raw vine and sheep are used as natural lawn mowers to contain the growth. The vineyard is the process of converting to full organic and has already received HVE certification.
