TERROIR


The vines of the SERRES-MAZARD estate are planted at an altitude of 300 metres, on the plateau overlooking the village of Talairan, in the heart of the garrigue and in a preserved area where numerous wild orchids grow.

The soil is composed of alternating conglomerates, sandstone and fluvial sandstone marls, known locally as the 'molasses de Carcassonne'. Their sedimentation took place during the Cuisian, Lutetian and Bartonian periods, three geological stages belonging to the Lower and Upper Eocene (55 to 37 million years ago).

The region was then covered by the sea. In the Cuisian, the latter retreated, moving on to a lacustrine and palustrine sedimentation, then from the Lutetian to the Bartonian, to a powerful continental sedimentation which gave rise to the 4molasses de Carcassonne4.



WINEGROWING & WINEMAKING


The JOSEPH MAZARD cuvée is a blend of four red grape varieties where Syrah and very old Carignan vines are in the majority. The yield for this wine is 35 hl/ha.

The vines are cultivated according to the sustainable agriculture rules: no systematic treatments, only as a last resort, when necessary. The estate has been certified HVE level 3 since 2019.

The bunches of grapes used to make the JOSEPH MAZARDwine are manually harvested, de-stemmed and then vinified separately, variety by variety. The grapes are not crushed in vats, the whole berries are left to macerate for 15 days where the alcoholic fermentation is triggered.
After the 2 weeks of maceration, the juice is racked into oak barrels to complete the malolactic fermentation and to be aged for at least 12 months.
