Farming: Organic

Variety: 90% Grenache - 10% Counoise

Winemaker: Guillaume Reynier 

Terroir: Limestone from the lower Cretaceous period with large fossils is scattered throughout the vineyards—it’s easy to find fossils of scallops or mortared to larger limestone rocks. In certain sections, just meters apart, soils randomly undulate from dark red, iron-rich clays, hard limestones and pure white, soft chalk outcrops.

Vinification: Grapes destemmed and crushed. Pellicular maceration for 40%. Direct pressing for 60%. Fermentation at 17°. Blocked malolactic fermentation.

Tasting Notes: Fresh and dry, with notes of nectarine, thyme and limestone.
