PROFILE

No added sulphites

CAPACITY

750 mL

Old vines of Syrah and Grenache.
For quality reasons, we maintain low yields : under 30 hl/ha Available production : 10.500 bottles expected in 2013.

Clay limestone slopes, southern exposure, altitude of 100 to 200 metres.
The higher vines are covered with small stones whereas the lower ones benefit from alluvial soil.

The grapes are careful chosen during the manual harvest. They are then put into 10-kg-crates which are kept into a cold-storage room for 24 hours. After destemming, a cold pre- fermentation extraction takes place for 3 to 5 days. Then the temperature rises to 19°C, allowing the indigenous yeasts to launch the fermentation.
Stomping or pumping are operated twice a day after the tasting of each juice. An oxygen injection during fermentation avoids reduction taste.

This 0-added-sulphites wine is a natural wine. Its very dark garnet colour heralds a beautiful body. The spicy cocoa nose gathers yummy red fruit aromas
