Vineyard |
The vineyard stretches over 35 hectares, of which 21 are AOC Minervois classified. The soil structure is diverse, comprising rolled pebbles, sandstone and limestone. On the stony soils where water is in short supply, the rocks are first crushed before the vine can be planted. The climate is characteristic of the Mediterranean, very dry and benefiting from exceptional sunshine. |
Vinification |
De-stemming, skin contact for short time followed by pressing of the first juice to have the lightest color possible. Fermentation and aging in tanks. |
Pairing |
Perfect as an aperitif. An incredibly versatile wine that besides obvious pairings with Provençal cuisine, goes well with Asian dishes, sushi, curries, Middle-Eastern fare, fish and seafood as well as burgers and grilled meats. |
Serving |
Serve at 45°F |
