Technique

Viticulture

The grapes come from vineyards that are 50 to 100 years old, located at an altitude of between 300 and 700 metres. The vines are planted on different types of soil: slate, clay and granite. Certified organic farming.

Oenology

The grapes are harvested by hand in 10 kg crates. After manual selection of the grapes and leaf removal, there is a 2-day maceration, followed by fermentation in 500 litre open French oak barrels and malolactic fermentation in 300 litre barrels. Finally, the wine rests for 19 months in French oak barrels before spending 16 months in bottle.
