A 100% Grenache cuvée, made from 70-year-old vines farmed organically and planted on slightly sandy, clayey-limestone soils, facing southwest. The grapes are handpicked and carefully sorted in the vineyard. Vinification: 100% destemmed, ten weeks of maceration in stainless steel vats, gentle pressing to preserve the fruit, long aging in those same stainless steel vats. Bottled without any additives, and above all no added sulphur!
