Vintage
A relatively milde winter was followed by a dry March and a dry and warm April, and flowering set in somewhat earlier than usual. There were no long heatwaves in the summer. In spite of this, the head start in the vegetation cycle became shorter and shorter up to the harvest, and the first grapes were harvested at the beginning of September, with the last load reaching the winery on October 9. The white wines of the 2020 vintage present with an appealing acidity; the reds are impressive for their elegance and finesse.
Tasting notes
– brilliant ruby red
– expressive bouquet of cherries, violets and marzipan
– an abundance of cherry fruit on the palate, smooth with fine, elegant tannins
Recommendation
This wine is an ideal partner to heavier meat dishes, game and piquant hard cheeses.
Vinification
Ripe, perfectly selected grapes, fermentation on the skins in large, open wooden casks at 25°C, two-week extended maceration, malo-lactic and 12-month aging in barrique and tonneaux, light filtration before bottling
Vineyard
South-east to north-east and west facing slopes between 400 and 500 meters above sea level, well-ventilated and with low night time temperatures during the ripening period. Mineral-rich conglomerate on weathered chalk.
