Notes
VINEYARD: The 4 hectare vineyard is based in Travaillan - about 15km from Chateauneuf du Pape. The age of the vines is 60 years old, and they are planted on clay/limestone soil.

VINIFICATION: Grapes are manually harvested. After destemming and crushing, there is a cold pre-fermentation maceration, following which there is a fermentation of 15 days in tank. The cap is punched and pumped over for 2 weeks. The wine rests on its lees for 8 months in stainless steel tank before being bottled.

TASTING NOTES: Violet red color. Nose of fresh fruits and sweet spices notes. Fleshy and full on the palate with notes of red and black fruits
