These are Cabernet Sauvignon "Vieilles vignes", planted between 1951 and 1978. Old vines were often sacrificed when quantity took precedence over quality. A great pity, since wines from old vines have a richer, more intense taste. Thanks to their deeper roots, they are more resistant to drought, produce fewer grapes and absorb the essence of our terroir: the heat of the summer days, the coolness of the nights and the Mistral wind. After hand-picking, we first vinified the old Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah separately in thermo-regulated stainless steel vats. After "blending", ageing continued for 15 months in new barrels, 2- to 4-year-old barrels and 600-liter Demi-Muids.
Appearance
The color is a blend of garnet and purple.
Aroma
The aromatic profile is rich, combining notes of vanilla, fresh spice, black fruit and garrigue.
Taste
The palate is full-bodied, with a beautiful harmony evolving towards a powerful finish, with tannins that become more refined, and cherry aromas and tobacco notes that contribute to the drinkability of the finish.

Meat
À table, les viandes grillées comme une côtes de veau, un gigot ou des côtelettes d’agneau se marient à merveille aux jeunes millésimes. Evitez les sauces. A partir de 5 ans, le vin révèle des arômes tertiaires plus complexes. Il devient un vin d’hiver ou d’automne qui appelle des mets plus élaborés, un magret de canard, un pigeon au sang.
Cheeses
Pour marier les cépages anciens, nous vous recommandons les fromages affinés à pâte dure, le Parmesan ou le vieux Gouda.
Desserts
Le déguster sans accompagnement - peut être avec un livre ou de la musique classique - donne la véritable perception du vin. Si vous voulez l’essayer avec un dessert, optez pour une excellente mousse au chocolat noir ou une gaufre de pommes de terre et jus aux truffes de Provence
