Terroirs & grape varieties: 
The vineyard is cultivated with the greatest respect for nature and people. The grapes come from terroirs of the upper terrace bordering the Rhône, a magnificent claylime terroir with deep and very stony soils. Such soils naturally give small yields. For vintage 2020, 30 hectoliters/hectare.

    • Grenache 40%
    • Syrah 35%
    • Carignan 15%
    • Mourvèdre 10%

Vineyards:

    • Soil: Iron-rich topsoil over clay and limestone
    • Agricultural: Sustainable

Vinification:

    • The grapes are destemmed and vinified in concrete vats.
    • The vatting lasts a fortnight with gentle extractions.
    • Aging takes place in vats to keep aromatic purity.

Tasting Note:

    • The 2021 vintage offers beautiful notes of black fruits, garrigue and spices.
    • The mouth is greedy, with a tannic texture present but very fine.
    • The opulent, round finish is undoubtedly charming.

Food pairing:

    • Leg of suckling lamb with thyme flower, ratatouille, Provençal tomatoes, lamb tagine with prunes.

Recommendations: 

    • To be enjoyed in the 5 comings years following the vintage.
    • Serving temperature: 60-63 ° F
