    «Réserve  »

SOIL : rounded stones, clay, chalk and silica.

 

BLEND : Grenache is predominant. It is blended with Syrah, Mourvedre and Cinsault.

VINIFICATION AND MATURATION :

There is rigorous selection of the grapes during the vendage. Vinifaction lasts for three weeks, with the temperature of fermentation around 30 to 32oC . 70 per cent of the wine matures in big barrels of 40 hectolitres and 30 per cent in oak casks of 600 litres. Maturation takes some 16 to 18 months.

WHAT WE CAN SAID ABOUT THE WINE :

It is a very virile wine, typical of its terroir, strongly influenced by the Mistral and the sun. A wine that will bring the traditional robustness and warmheartedness of Provence to your table.
