This cuvée comes from a vineyard plot originally planted by Stéphane Sérol and is distinguished by meticulous cultivation on granite soil in the heart of the Oudan hillside. The vines, planted at high density, benefit from a south-facing exposure that promotes early ripening of the grapes. Every step, from the hand-harvest to the 11-month aging in truncated-cone wooden vats, is designed to respect and reveal the terroir’s potential, enhanced by rigorous selection in the cellar.
