Description
This cuvée comes from a selection of the best grapes of our last carignan in gobelet. The grapes are harvested manually and the wine is elaborated in an integral winemaking mode: fermentation and maceration are done directly in the barrel. This method will make it possible to carry out a precise vinification on small volumes and to round the tannins without hiding the aromatic structure of the wine. After draining, the juice of taste is put in amphora and raised in this container for a year. At the end of the ageing, the wine is glued with organic eggs from a local farm.
