Grape variety/varieties:

A blend of Grenache, Syrah, Marselan and Mourvèdre.

 
Harvest:

The grapes are picked mechanically and at night to limit the oxidation of the juices.

 
Soil:

The soil is made up of pebbles on a sandy-clay matrix allowing the soil to build up water reserves which help the growth of the vine in this sunny, Mediterranean climate.

 
Vinification:

The fully destemmed grapes are vinified in concrete tanks. Fermentation temperature around 25°C. Daily, gentle pumping over and 3-4 weeks maceration.

 
Aging:

Following malolactic fermentation (natural de-acidification), the wine is aged in concrete vats for 6 months.
