This Chenin wine, made without added sulfites, is an authentic product that respects nature. It is made primarily from grapes grown on the estate, with a portion sourced from the Fresche estate. The winemaking process involves alcoholic and malolactic fermentation in barrels, driven by indigenous yeasts. Particular care is taken during aging in second- or third-use barrels, with weekly stirring to enhance the wine’s complexity and roundness.
