Ratings & Reviews

Vineyard

Exclusively handgrown, 12 hectares of Syrah and Marsanne grapes, on the right bank of the Rhône, from Tournon to Saint-Péray. 6.5 ha of Syrah are planted on very decomposed granite slopes, locally called “gore”, among the finest in the area of the Cornas appellation.

Vinification

Whole grape bunches pressed and not crushed. Sparkling wine made according to the traditional method: the base wine fermented at low temperature in concrete vats, then a second fermentation in bottles.

Aging

Aged on laths for 4 years.
