Unit

Box of 6 bottles

Terroir

Area of 1 hectare on the Causse d'Aumelas at an altitude of 300m (thermal amplitude favouring phenolic ripening). Clay-limestone slopes and sandstone of low fertility. Disbudding and green harvesting to limit yields.

Varieties

1/3 Syrah 1/3 Grenache 1/3 Merlot

Vinification

Hand-picked to select the best berries on the plot. Vinification using separate grape varieties, with a 4-week maceration period and daily punching down and pumping over. During vinification, we add no inputs and use only indigenous yeasts.

Ageing

6 months in vats to preserve the wine's freshness and delicacy.

Tasting

An elegant wine with a fruity nose and hints of undergrowth. On the palate, a few minutes' aeration reveals a well-balanced wine with mellow tannins, giving way to aromas of red fruit and spices.
