Grape Varieties & Terroirs

This cuvée is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon. The plots are situated on the limestone Cazelles plateau. This superb quality terroir is characterized by a high content of organic matter and stones. Our farming practices work in harmony with and respect the local flora and fauna.

 

Harvest & Vinification

Our harvest is carried out completely by hand and placed into small boxes for transportation thus respecting the integrity of these fine grapes from the vineyard to the cellar. The grapes are hand sorted and de-stemmed. After a maceration lasting 2 to 3 weeks, the wine is run off and transferred into oak barrels.

 

Aging

Aged for 12 months in French oak barrels 1/3 new.

 

Tasting Notes

The robe is deep garnet. The bouquet blends blackcurrant, garrigue and spicy aromas with cocoa notes. The generous palate, with notes of ripe blackberry and spices has an excellent finale.
