Cultivation
To express all the peculiarities of our terroir and the typical nature of our vineyard (45ha of estate in a single plot of which 30 hectares of vineyard), we maintain a harmonious ecological balance by respecting the natural cycles of the earth to constantly regenerate and renew the soil. This is the basis of our commitment to organic and biodynamic viticulture.

Terroir
Sprinkled with pebbles, rolled and shaped by the Rhone, our Chateauneuf du Pape rests on a marly, sandy and clayey sedimentary substrate which constitutes a formidable "pantry" for the vine which can immerse its roots deep down to draw water and freshness from it in all weathers and in all seasons.

Vinification and refinement
After an initial sorting carried out on the plot by the harvesters, the grapes are transported to the cellar in small 25 kg boxes, where, before being placed in the vats, a second selection is carried out by the winery staff. Our best Grenache and Syrah grapes are vinified without destemming. The long fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled vats. During the fermentation phase, various punchings can be carried out. The 18-month refinement is carried out for 1/3 of the wine in oak barrels and for the remaining part in steel.
