Ageing
The crop is manually harvested. Upon arrival in the cellars, the grapes are sorted and vatted in 50hl oak barrels. Unlike Syrah, Grenache is destemmed. After maceration, fermentation begins. The extraction and the temperatures are controlled according to daily tastings. We work the wines by punching down or pumping over. After racking, the wines are aged for a year and a half in oak Foudres.
The vintage
The 2018 vintage is characterised by exceptional weather conditions. Flowering took place in the best possible conditions, with a historically abundant grape output. A few rainy episodes at the end of the spring complicated things a little with an attack of mildew, but the good weather then settled down until harvest, which took place under idyllic conditions. The wines are beautiful.

Serving

Tasting
Beautiful intense purple colour. The particularly fragrant nose combines notes of black fruit such as blackberry and blackcurrant and notes of violet and liquorice. Delicate, silky and powerful, the palate is perfectly balanced and reveals beautiful maturity. Great length on the finish.
