The vintage
2023 was a year full of contrasts: warm temperatures at the end of December and beginning of January raised concerns about early budding; a return to normalcy continued until February with relatively cool weather; a persistent drought accompanied by a strong Mistral wind, followed by regular rainfall until the end of June. Thanks to constant vigilance in the vineyards, the berries were healthy and well-ripened when harvest started, promising one of the finest vintages of the past decade.
Terroir
The vineyards are located around the village of Rasteau, nestled between plains and hills, on soils composed of sandstone, marl, and limestone.
Winemaking
Manual harvest at optimum maturity. The wine is vinified with minimum intervention to respect the aromas and integrity of the grapes. After malolactic fermentation, grape varieties are blend before bottling.
