Blend of 2 south exposed hills. Very nice exposure on a pink granite soil with a total surface of 5 hectares. 350 m altitude, with slopes of 15 to 18%.
Very old 70 to 100 year old vines
Manual harvest. Selection of the best grapes on a vibrating sorting table. Then vatting of the entire bunches for a typical Beaujolais semi-carbonic maceration which lasts 10 to 12 days.
Ageing lasts 3 to 4 months on fine lees in old oak casks to enhance micro oxygenation. In the end, natural or cold static decanting.
The wine is estate bottled.
Nice ruby colour, subtle small red fruits aromas. Full bodied with a nice attack on the palate. An elegant wine which leaves long lasting aromas.
