Malolactic fermentation is followed by a very short 3-month aging period in lined concrete tanks to preserve the aromas and freshness. This cuvée is available from the beginning of the following February after the harvest for only one year.

Harvesting starts in early September and early in the morning to preserve the aromas and freshness. Black Grenache and Carignan are treated like a rosé wine, they macerate for a day at cold temperatures. Then we proceed with a gentle pressing. After settling the must for 36 hours, alcoholic fermentation takes place in a temperature-controlled stainless steel tank for 4 days at 18° to 20°C. The pronounced fruity character of these grape varieties is thus preserved. Syrah, Clairette, and White Grenache are fermented at 24°C, they macerate for 4 days to limit tannin extraction and preserve the fresh grape aromas. The musts are then blended at the end of fermentation.
