Terroir

LOCATION: perched at an altitude of 300 metres on the heights of Talairan, in an untouched Mediterranean landscape where wild flora flourishes alongside the vines.

SOIL: a complex geological mosaic locally referred to as Carcassonne molasses, featuring a blend of sandstone, conglomerates, and fluvial marls. These formations date back to the Cuisian, Lutetian, and Bartonian stages of the EARLY AND LATE EOCENE epoch.

Viticulture & Vinification

HARVEST: hand-picked at optimal maturity.

YIELD: controlled yield of 35 hl/ha.

VINIFICATION: parcel-by-parcel vinification for each grape variety. The harvest is fully destemmed without crushing, allowing whole grapes to macerate gently for a period of 15 days. Complete alcoholic and malolactic fermentations.

AGEING: 12 months in oak barrels.

BOTTLING: lightly filtered prior to bottling.

CORK: traditional natural cork.

Sommelier's Note

"What intensity! This rich and savory vintage delights with a complex nose of blackberry, blueberry, bay leaf, and thyme, beautifully elevated by a subtle touch of coffee. On the palate, it is at once full-bodied, silky, and deeply aromatic, supported by remarkably fine tannins before gliding into a gorgeous liquorice finish. A true marvel!"
