TERROIRS

Blend of our three terroirs: La Londe, on micaceous schist; Barbeiranne, on hard, smoky-gray clay-limestone and Clos Fanny, schistous like La Londe without maritime influence.

VINTAGE & CHARACTERISTICS

A year punctuated by unforeseen weather conditions! The winter was marked by an exceptional drought. The rains of May and June, however, rekindled the disease pressure on Pignans. August was very hot, with a lot of Mistral wind and hot nights. Temperatures dropped around September. All in all, an uneven harvest, with early and later grape varieties such as Mourvèdre and Cinsault.

VINIFICATION

Destemmed and fermented in
thermo-regulated vats for 10 days, then
traditionally macerated at 25°C.
Pressed and regularly racked, it is matured
and then blended in March.

Ultimate red of Provence between freshness, finesse and softness.

ROBE

Mild ruby colour.

NOSE

Discreet, displaying black fruits such as blueberries, black cherries, herbal scents of garrigue complemented by graphite hints.

PALATE

Dry, with moderate acidity and gentle texture, offering a silky mouthfeel. Medium and slightly firm tannins, offering a pretty, cocoa like grain, the palate expresses black fruit, some liquorice and a fresh herbal twist on the finish.

TOUCH

A blank cotton canvas
