​
Harvesting ...
​
​
Parcel-by-parcel sélection: clay-loam soil of the boubène type. Preference is given to the cooler, north-east-facing hills, which limit water stress and preserve aromatic potential.
​
Harvest date: according to regular berry tasting. Grapes harvested just ripe to preserve fruitiness and freshness.
Blend:
50% Petit Manseng
50% Gros Manseng
​
Vinification...
Slow, gentle pressing in a pneumatic press to avoid oxidation of the juice and preserve aromas.
​
Cold settling to preserve fruity aromas
​
Stabulation: cold settling on fine lees with daily stirring of the lees, bringing fatness and aromatic richness.
Alcoholic fermentation: in oak barrels
​
Aging...
​
In 300 liters oak barrels
on fine lees for 6 months
Bâtonnage (stirring of the lees) twice a week to keep the lees in suspension and give the wine more body.
First bottling in early spring after the harvest
