Its mellow, rich flavor will get anyone drunk; it's a killer wine for special occasions!

A must-have for fans of good French wine.

It has a complex aroma of red fruits such as dark cherries and blackcurrants, pepper, vanilla, etc. The tannins that support the sweet fruit aroma are also pleasant, and it is a very well-balanced wine that you can enjoy the concentration and pleasant astringency.

The producer, Piva, owns two chateaux, and this Petit L'Arque is made on the higher vineyard. This vineyard is suitable for Cabernet Sauvignon. Of course, Petit L'Arque is mainly Cabernet Sauvignon.

The other Seigneur de Pommier vineyard has a similar profile to Saint-Emilion and Pomerol and is well suited to growing Merlot.

Organic since 1984

We own two chateaux in the Bordeaux region. We have been involved in winemaking in Northern Italy for generations, but in 1924 we moved to Entre-Deux-Mers in the Bordeaux region of France. We purchased Chateau Petit Chaud L'Arque in 1961 and Chateau Seigner de Pommier in 1989, and produce wine under two brands. We have always practiced organic farming, but in 1984 we obtained certification in order to respect the environment and to be mindful of our customers' health. The two chateaux are not far apart, but the differences in altitude and soil result in wines with completely different flavors. The moon is particularly important in winemaking. Following the teachings of our ancestors, we select grapes and make wine based on the movement of the moon. We are one of the farmers who have received many awards and medals.
