Vineyard

The vineyards are located on a plateau at 93 metres altitude south of the Loire. The soil consists of clay-silt soils with black schist surfacing as the parent rock. This ensures a combination of freshness and subtle minerality. The domain has been working organically since 2000. The wet vintage required very careful selection to retain only perfectly ripe and healthy bunches.

Winemaking

The grapes were harvested entirely by hand with a strict selection in the vineyard due to the wet year of 2024. The whole bunches were gently pneumatically pressed, after which the juice was separated from the coarse lees the following day. Fermentation occurred spontaneously with indigenous yeasts and lasted less than a month. The wine then matured on its fine lees until April. Bottling followed a light filtration with a very limited addition of sulfites of 1 g/hl.
