Terroir
This cuvée comes from two parcels of vines for a total of 1.5 hectares. 1 hectare is planted on terraces with very steep slopes, facing south and southeast, on one of the most beautiful slopes of the appellation. The soil is shallow at 50 to 75 cm on average. Delimiting these terraces, the natural stone walls are more than 1,000 years old. The rest of the vineyard, 0.5 hectares, is located at the bottom of the slope.
Winemaking
Manual harvesting. Slow and progressive pressing. Settling at 13°C for 12 hours. Classic alcoholic fermentation then malolactic fermentation. Cuvée results from blending grapes from two locations vinified separately. 10% of the total cuvée is aged in new French oak barrels for 4 months with the rest in stainless steel vats.

The palate, with a very supple attack, explodes on the finish with a very smooth structure. We find apricot, sweet spices and vanilla at the finish of the mouth. This well-balanced and very elegant wine offers a superb length.
