Presentation
Due to its age and expertise in the Laudun AOC, Maison Brotte knows the terroirs of the region perfectly. Thus, it can select the vines with the best exposure on clay-sandy soils often covered with gravel or stones, with a strong draining power that gives this cuvée a lot of freshness.
