Presentation
A wine for friends, with expressive and typical aromas of the South of France. Share it with a delicious sausage from Corsica or a "camembert" from Normandy, standing at the foot of the Eiffel tower or by the Mediterranean sea... Whatever the occasion, Les Artistes is a perfect way to treat yourself and your friends well!
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.
