Description

GRAPE VARIETY
Roussanne 31%, Grenache blanc 26%, Clairette
22% and Picardan 21%.
TERROIR
This cuvée is the blend of our best parcels of
white Grenache, Roussanne, Picardan and
Clairette on river stones and limestone flint.
HARVEST
After a rainy start to the year (300 mm from January to
April) and solid rainfall in May (65 mm), June was very hot.
Conditions once again favored the development of downy
mildew, mainly on leaves, still present at the end of June.
After waiting for the optimum ripeness, the
grapes were harvested manually between the
18 of August and the 10 th th of September 2025.
VINIFICATION
The grapes are picked by hand, early in the morning
to keep fresh, sorted and packed in a way to limit
the crushing. The bunches are pressed gently, in a
pneumatic press. The musts are selected, then sent
to the stainless-steel tank, thermo-regulated. After
settling in the cold, a part of the Grenache is filled in
barrels to carry out the alcoholic fermentation.

AGING
100% of the wine is aged in oak barrels ans
stainless steel vat during 9 months
TASTING
Pale gold with silvery hints. Nose of white
flowers, soft spices, and toasted brioche. Fresh
attack, round palate, long mineral finish.
Drink now or within 10 years. Serve at 11–12°C.

eggs.
