Region: Languedoc

Appellation: Vallée du Paradis IGP

Grapes: 100% Grenache

Soils/Terroir: Red clay and limestone from the Triassic period, high in oxidized iron.

Winemaking: The grapes were fully destemmed, but not crushed and fermented whole berry in stainless-steel tanks for 25 days. The extraction is very light, with one short pump over per day. The grapes are then pressed, and the juice is transferred to tanks for settling prior to barrel aging. A low dose of sulfur is added 3-4 weeks after the completion of malolactic fermentation.

Maturation: Aged 9 months in 228L French oak barrels (10% new) from the coopers Chassin, Damy, Gillet and Francois Frères. One month before bottling the barrels are racked into stainless steel tanks. Bottled unfined and unfiltered.
