In a few words ...
Hand-picked in small crates at the beginning of October, when the grapes are fully ripe. They are then sorted on a vibrating table. Half of the grapes are vinified as whole bunches in 50 hl wooden vats (maceration of whole, uncrushed grapes and fermentation of grapes in barrels). Béziers unstemmed) without sulfur for 15 days, followed by final fermentation after pressing of the still-sweet grapes. The other half is destemmed and vinified traditionally, also in 50hl tanks, without sulfur, with a month's maceration. The first addition of sulfur takes place only after malolactic fermentation. Aged in 228L barrels and 1⁄2 500L muids until summer.

A real discovery! Excellent value for money. Delicious with grilled meats!

Indeed, it's opulent and very greedy. However, I don't think the wine is too heavy, and it goes very well with a meal that needs to be intense enough to withstand this fruit bomb.

Complex aromatic palette combining black fruits and spices with a certain freshness. Good length on the palate. A fine piece of work.

Red fruit with blueberry and blackberry, spicy finish. Long on the palate, a Southern wine as we like them, rich and opulent.
