Our aim is to make good wine while caring for the environment and terroir! Good grapes have 4 features: 1. high sugar content, 2. colour, 3. good tannins, 4. the presence of aroma precursors The oenologist’s role will be to use all his skill to express this potential to the full. |
| Each stage of vinification is aimed at extracting aromas, polishing up the tannins and enhancing the substance of the wine…Specially designed by Michel Picard, our stainless steel vats extract the aromas, aroma precursors , colours and good tannins delicately and naturally; this cold pre-fermentation maceration lasts 8 to 10 days, during which the grape solids sit soaking between 2 layers of juice, thanks to the grids that separate our vats into 2 parts …The vats are cooled by a flow of cold water through pipes fitted around the vats! |
| Our key aim is to extract the aromas gently, which is why the temperature in our vats never exceeds 25°C during fermentation. The grapes and juice are never hurried… and the oenologist’s work becomes increasingly precise and fascinating. |
