The soil is alluvial, very rich in clay.
The climate is mild, with very few showers and high summer temperatures, allowing the grapes to ripen perfectly.
To achieve perfect ripening of the grapes, summer pruning and careful leaf thinning are carried out in addition to the usual vineyard maintenance. In addition, the harvest is kept very low to produce grapes with rich body and flavour.
Harvest is early September, when the grapes are very well ripened but still have a good level of acidity.
Separation of the grapes from the crests and crushing, soft pressing of the grapes, static clarification and fermentation exclusively with wild yeasts at controlled temperature in stainless steel vats at 18°C. The wine is then clarified for several months on noble lees in stainless steel. temperature controlled vats. The lees are often blended to increase the density and softness of the wine.
Seductive pale yellow colour, complex and aromatic aroma with notes of jasmine, peach and mint. Stimulating savoury aftertaste with a perfectly balanced minerality.
