Harvesting is carried out manually or mechanically, depending on the age of the vines. The grapes are sorted before vatting. Cold pre-fermentation maceration lasts about two days in stainless steel tanks. Alcoholic fermentation lasts about a week. This is followed by a 15-day vatting period. Ageing in stainless steel vats lasts between 6 and 12 months. Our old vines, aged between 35 and 80 years, produce wines for laying down, for our "Vielles Vignes" and "L'insoumise" cuvées. Expression from vines up to 35 years old produces lighter, softer, fruitier wines to be enjoyed in their youth. Bottles are stored in an air-conditioned cellar all year round, and some vintages are aged in a tuffeau cellar to satisfy our customers' need for quality products.
