Vinification and aging:
-
- The grapes are hand-picked.
- After a selection of the best bunches by hand on a sorting table, the grapes are crushed and destemmed and fall by gravity in our concrete tanks.
- Long maceration with gentle extractions allow to obtain velvetine yet powerful tannins, which are specific to our wines.
- 10 % of the wine is then aged in oak barrels and demi-muids for 15 month, 90% in concrete vats.
Tasting note:
-
- Nose, garrigue bouquet, cistus flower, blackcurrant buds, all fresh and balanced on the palate, with aromas of cocoa and cherry, with a long finish of liquorice.
Food and Wine pairing:
-
- In its youth, this vintage is perfect to pair with a shoulder of lamb slow roasted in oven, roast pigeon with porcini mushroom, and from its fifth year, stew, Daube Provencal, all game and many cheeses.
