<h3>Sol</h3><p>Clay-limestone</p>
<h3>Rendement</h3><p>30-35 HL/HA</p>
<h3>Production</h3><p>6 000 bottles</p>
<h3>Vignoble</h3><p>Hillside in the heart of the Minervois region. Vineyard planted 25 years ago on an upright trellis.
</p>
<h3>Vinification</h3><p>De-stemming, fermentation at controlled temperature, pumping-over and punching of the cap. Long vatting after
fermentation. Malolactic fermentation in vats.
</p>

carefully selected.
</p>
<h3>Analyses</h3><p>15,3% TA : 3,71 pH : 3,51
</p>
<h3>Notes de dégustation</h3><p>This wine has a nice deep colour. It shows elegant and complex aromas of red fruits, blackberry, spices and pepper
on the nose, with a great freshness of garrigue (balsamic scents, thyme and dry herbs), vanilla and cocoa. On the
palate, the rich and powerful flavours finish with delicate hints of vanilla and toast.
</p>
<h3>Mets et Vins</h3><p>This wine is best enjoyed with well cooked meals. Thanks to its strength and elegance, it is a perfect accompaniment with all meals and cheeses, and also with chocolate desserts.
Best enjoyed decanted 2 hours before serving.
</p>
<h3>Potentiel de vieillisement</h3><p>10 years</p>
