Red winemaking : our points of difference

♦ We pick on phenolic ripeness.

♦ We manually eliminate all grape impurities.

♦ We cold macerate for 3 days in order to extract fruit flavours.

♦ Our best blocks are aged in French oak, with minimum So² and malolactic fermentation starts only the following spring.

♦ All reds are bottled with a minimum of filtration.

White and Rosé winemaking : our points of difference

♦ We pick by grape flavour.

♦ The white grapes are picked late night and chilled to 5-8°c in order to preserve fruit flavour.

♦ We vinify 20% of our white and rosé in 3-5 year barrels in order to obtain complexity and richness.

♦ 6 different yeasts are used depending on the  characteristics of each block of vineyard.
 
♦ We leave our wines on lees and unsulphured naturally for 4 months to develop flavour.

♦ We minimise filtration.
