Terroir

AGE OF VINES: 50 years.

SOIL: clay-siliceous soil dating from the HAUTERIVIAN (Early Cretaceous) period. This terroir produces lively, crisp wines with highly pleasant gunflint aromas in their youth.

Viticulture & Vinification

HARVEST: manual, in 12 kg crates.

SORTING: by hand on a sorting table.

VINIFICATION: total destemming of the grapes. 25-day maceration in vats with pump-overs (remontages). Fermentation using indigenous yeasts. The must is then pressed and transferred to 228-liter oak barrels.

AGEING: 12 months in 228-liter barrels:

  • 1/4 in new barrels
  • 1/4 in one-year-old barrels
  • 1/4 in two-year-old barrels
  • 1/4 in three-year-old barrels

BOTTLING: without fining or filtration.

CORK: DIAM5® technological cork, guaranteeing the absence of any TCA contamination or cork taint.

Sommelier's Note

"This cuvée is definitively unique! Superb expressive and fleshy nose evoking freshly squeezed blood orange juice blended with small fresh red berries. The palate, particularly juicy and thirst-quenching, delivers a beautifully fresh performance that will blossom in a few years into noble tertiary notes of ripe dark fruits and spices. A guaranteed favorite!"
