2010 Chateau Croix Mouton 20 Mille De Janoueix Bordeaux Superieur image

The 1.4 hectare plot that is used to make this 20 Mille Bordeaux Superieur vineyard is located in the larger vineyard of Chateau Croix Mouton.  This plot is planted to 100% Merlot on Riparia rootstock.  The name 20 Mille refers to the density of vines here as there are 20,000 vines per hectare planted in this plot.  The vines are very closely packed the minimal distance between each vine is only 80 centimeters. The rows are packed even tighter, each row is only separated by a distance of 60 centimeters!  This close planting makes it very difficult to farm, but the end result is naturally lower yields.  The terroir of 20 Mille plot is clay, limestone and rocky soils.
