GEOLOGY

VINIFICATION
Harvest by hand. The grapes are sorted twice (during picking and on the sorting table), then partially destemmed. (if necessary, depending on the quality of the bays a third sorting is done with our optical sorting machine). They are then placed in thermo-regulated tanks. The alcoholic fermentation can start with natural yeast and will last about 3 weeks. Very soft windings in order to respect the raw material and to obtain the purest and most representative wine of the soil. Gentle pressing.

BREEDING
The wine is put in French oak barrels (10% new oak) after a light settling. The malolactic fermentation can then begin thanks to the bacteria naturally present in the juice. The aging lasts 14 months on fine lees. We follow the lunar calendar for bottling without collage or filtration: when the moon is down and in day "fruit".

TASTING NOTES
