Winery | The grapes come from the Pic Saint-Loup appellation, the most northerly in the Languedoc, at the Cevennes and Massif Central base. However, as the Pic Saint-Loup appellation only covers red and rose wines, this white wine is produced under the IGP of Saint-Guilhem-le-Desert. The soil is chalky-clay on marly sub-soil, which imparts elegance to the wines. The climate is influenced by the Mediterranean Sea, which is 15 miles away, but it is also continental due to the surrounding hills. The diurnal temperature variation can be significant, with over 25C difference between day and night, promoting a long growing season, resulting in concentrated wines with excellent balance. The annual rainfall is 1,000mm, nourishing the vines throughout the warm, dry summer. The vineyards are cultivated sustainably, ploughing takes place to ensure good aeration of the soil, and since 2020, the estate has been converted to organic status. Harvesting takes place in the cool of the night. |
