Today, the estate covers approximately 16 hectares of vines of which 12 are in the Cte de Nuits and its winemaking philosophy is

ex Pedro Ximenez Sherry or ex Port barrels and bottled at their natural cask strengths in a range of between 48% and 61

Rare and unique wines of Château Croix de Labrie are rich

Light but powerful and highly moreish

and the merest hint of ginger

As well as whisky from several American oak ex-Bourbon casks

There is 10% Cabernet Franc

sweet notes of tobacco
