Detailed information
Vintage
2024 stands out for its freshness and balance, a breath of fresh air in a demanding climate. The rainy spring regenerated the soils, and the summer, with its heat and cool nights, brought out the best in the aromas and colours. Despite modest yields of fine quality, the harvest produced fresh, dynamic and harmonious wines, with well-balanced alcohol levels and well-integrated tannins. Overall, we found the balanced profiles of classic vintages, with ripeness, acidity and richness.
Grape varieties
Terroir
The selected plots come from the two sectors of the AOP:
– micaschist terraces from the Côte Brune for structure and complexity;
– gneiss and loess from the Côte Blonde providing finesse and elegance.
Age of vines: 26 to 45 years on average – Yield: 27hl/ha.
Winemaking
Grapes were hand-picked, in two stages: from September 19 to 21, 2024, then on October 5, 2024. Fermentation was followed by a 21-day maceration. After malolactic fermentation, the wine was racked-off into new 275-liter French oak Laurus barrels for 18 months of ageing.
