Special Features: The vineyard and winery consultant is Michel Rolland. Planted in upright cordons with a density of 7,000 plants per hectare. This allows the plants to benefit from the wind and sun, to provide high quality grapes. Vineyard is cultivated by hand and using small tractors. Green harvest so that the crop never goes over 1kg per plant. Hand picked grapes are cooled down to 5°C in cooling rooms overnight before being sorted on sorting tables.
