Ever since Théophile, Robert’s
father-in-law
and
Bernard’s
grandfather, bought the first
hectares on the Butte de Calon
hill, the family has forged an
indissoluble bond with the terroir
fromwhich it produces its wine. On
the land of Château Roc de Calon,
in the heart of Montagne Saint-
Emilion, an ancestral skill is handed
down through the generations, in
line with the family tradition. A
terroir in the image of those who
produce its wines, giving the name
its unique personality. According
to the French proverb, a family
that shouts is one that is united;
in Bernard Laydis’s household,
it is as if the family had drawn
its temperament from the very
mountain.
