Terroir

LOCATION: vineyard perched 300 metres above sea level atop the plateau overlooking Talairan, immersed in pristine garrigue where wild orchids bloom.

SOIL: terroir of Carcassonne molasses combining layers of sandstone, conglomerates, and fluvial marls. Sedimentation dated to the Cuisian, Lutetian, and Bartonian stages (EARLY AND LATE EOCENE).

Viticulture & Vinification

HARVEST: hand-picked.

YIELD: N/A.

VINIFICATION: separate handling for each grape variety. Whole-cluster destemming followed by light crushing in vats. Short maceration and fermentations managed over 6 to 7 days.

AGEING: 6 to 8 months in vats to preserve the fruitiness.

BOTTLING: lightly filtered prior to bottling.

CORK: selected natural cork.

Sommelier's Note

"Generous and intensely aromatic, this concentrated vintage reveals rich, inviting notes of dark fruits and coffee, wrapped in scents of thyme and bay leaf so characteristic of its terroir. On the palate, the texture is round, silky, and sun-drenched, carrying through to a luscious finish dominated by ripe blackberry. A delightful wine to enjoy today after a brief 15-minute decanting!"
