Vintage Notes: The last pruning programme of the century began on 11 December, earlier than usual.?This was because we wanted to make time for planting and tending the replacement vines; the earlier we plant them, the better they do. They thus received the rains of late winter and spring, and their roots pushed down more vigorously. It was a cold winter, with the Mistral prominent; a tiny bit of rain in April, then a more reasonable 60 mm of precipitation in May, and a powerful Mistral at month’s end. July was sunny, while two lots of rains in early August helped the vines prepare for véraison. The grapes were healthy despite a few spots of downy mildew on leaves, late in the season, which had no real effect on the quality of the crop.

Read more
Winemaking: The grapes are picked by hand; ripeness varies between varieties and districts. They are first sorted at the vine, then transferred quickly to the cellar in 50 kg crates. Once in the cellar, the crop passes onto the sorting table; then is destemmed, crushed and cooled. No yeast is added; we only work with native yeasts. During alcoholic fermentation, we control the temperature and perform daily pumping-over. Maceration lasts 4-5 weeks.

Ageing: The wine is matured for about 18 months, chiefly in concrete vats and several foudres or 350-litre barrels.
