It was classified as a Premier Cru Supérieur in the 1855 classification, the highest category assigned to the sweet white wines of Sauternes and Barsac. The estate's principal wine is made from Semillon, Sauvignon Blanc, and Muscadelle grapes affected in suitable conditions by noble rot, the botrytis infection that concentrates sugars and flavors.
