Presentation
Terroir
Granite, slightly acid on the right bank of the Rhône river, on the foothills of the Massif Central.
Winemaking
After pressing, the must is cold-settled for 48 hours. Only the indigenous yeasts are used for the fermentation which occurs at a temperature between 18 and 20°C.
Ageing
A small part of the wine is fermented in oak barrels, the rest remains in stainless steel vats. The two wines are blended before bottling, during the spring following the harvest.
