The journalist Pierre Guigui wrote: “This is serious stuff, far from the gluggles that come and go. There is a very nice background,

Salinity, structure, very dense juice but still fresh. ” (in Le vin naturel au délà des modes, May 2021)

At last, in 2019, a bit of “normality” in the weather, and very nice grapes in the end! It wasn’t until autumn 2019 that the sky became a little wild and we were happy for the water tables…

In bottle, you would discover a vintage more typical from our area : a beautiful, dense dark red colour, a little more substance in the mouth, and varietal aromas that are very present.
A nice ageing in bottle is expected.

Bottled on May, 5th 2021 !

Technical information (or upload it below) :

For this vintage, I still practice plot selection :
70% of Grenache in goblets planted in the year of my birth (1967) are blended with 25% of 36 year old Carignan and a pinch of Syrah.

The sandy-clayey soils are partially covered with pebbles that were once rolled by the river.

The vinification is classic: whole bunches of grapes are hardly crushed, cement vats, quick blending … Aging between 6 and 9 months in stainless steel tanks.
Annual production: 3000 bottles.
Total SO2 19 mg/l only in bottle.
Degree: 14% alc.vol
