The domain's short story
The vineyard is in conversion to organic farming and is located at an altitude of 350 to 400m. Le Mousquier: Chardonnay, Merlot and Sauvignon Blanc share this clayey-limestone soil, with a very slight slope to the south. The cuvée La Réserve benefits fully from this beautiful exposure.Le Cagne: On these parcels, we find Chardonnay, Cabernet Franc and Sauvignon Blanc which give these typical aromas to the cuvée "L'Audacieux "Le Ravin des Sieures: The Syrah from this vine is bathed in sunlight and brings a pretty fruit to the cuvée "L'Espiègle "Garrigue Haute: The 2 Syrah plots combine 10-year-old and 30-year-old vines, they combine perfectly in "L'Audacieux" and "L'Espiègle" Bram Fam: this exceptional terroir allows the full expression of Syrah aged in oak barrels and the very old Carignan whose vines are between 55 and 85 years old.Cougoumeilles: a very pretty grenache that goes into a new vintage (matured in barrels)
