The harvest date is only triggered, grape variety by grape variety, when the grapes are at optimum maturity and after daily tasting of the berries. The grapes are harvested by hand and are pressed pneumatic with separation of the presses upon their arrival at the cellar. After a slight static settling, the juice undergoes alcoholic fermentation in barrel. Temperature control helps preserve freshness and the integrity of the aromas. Barrel aging lasts between 7 and 8 months until the spring equinox with regular stirring, during two months. After a light fining, the wine is bottled.

Golden, pale yellow color. The nose is powerful and fresh with aromas of citrus fruits, fleshy fruits white such as pear and wedge, scents of garrigue and anise, with notes of hazelnuts grilled. The mouth is very fine and of a beautiful minerality, with iodized notes with touches of white pepper and flint. Lots of freshness in the finish with notes of acacia honey.

Keep away from sunlight and at a constant temperature

To be enjoyed at 11°C with scallops fried, fish in sauce or as an aperitif.
