Varietal
Sauvignon Blanc

​Age of the vines
30 years on average

Soil
Calcareous clay dating back to the Late Jurassic, comprised of 1/3 Kimmeridgian (marls characterized by small, fossilized oysters 145 million years old) and 2/3 Portlandian (formations that are superimposed over the Kimmeridgian epoch, approximately 135 million years old).

Vinification and ageing
The harvest is sorted before the grapes undergo pneumatic pressing, static settling then fermentation in stainless steel tanks for 3 to 4 weeks. Aged on fine lees for 6 to 9 months with stirring of the lees as needed depending on the vintage. Gently fined and lightly filtered before bottling.

We believe that it is essential to preserve our terroirs and ecosystem which are at the very essence of our work! We do not use any chemical fertilizers, herbicides, insecticides, or anti-rot products. Furthermore, we experiment with biodynamics, which is for plants what phytotherapy is for humans, allowing the vines to reinforce their natural defense.

In 2020, we were granted the highest level (3) of HEV (High Environmental Value) certification which is based on 4 key areas: biodiversity conservation, plant protection strategy, fertilizer use and water management.
