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.
The cuvée JULES is a dry white wine made from white grape varieties with a yield of 45hl/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 grapes that make up the JULES cuvée are harvested, destemmed and immediatly pressed to be fermented in barrels. The must is then racked into new oak and mahogany barrels for a 6-months ageing phase.
