This poor and draining soil, favors the deep implanting of the vines and the concentration of the grapes. Situated between the Atlantic Ocean and the vast estuary of the Gironde river, the Médoc vineyard is under influence of a soft and wet oceanic moderate climate; which is regulated by these two big water masses.
