This cuvee is produced from a parcel of old vines, from the local Gaillac variety Loin d’Oeil (sometimes known as Len de l'El). The name translates as ‘Far from the Eye’, referring to the long stalks which attach to the fruiting cane, being further away from the bud or ‘eye’ (l’oeil) than other varieties. The shallow limestone soil of this historic parcel imparts a bright and refreshing acidity to the white wines. The plot benefits from the warmth of the Mediterranean climate, tempered by oceanic breezes keep the vineyard healthy by aerating the vines. The vineyard is certified organic; no herbicides or insecticides are used and the vines are manually tended with leaf removal and green harvesting taking place by hand. Constantly striving to improve the natural balance between soil, flora and fauna, practices that respect the environment are employed; with cover crops in the vineyard, natural fertilisers to nourish the soils and silica treatments to help strengthen the vigour of the vines. The fruit is hand-harvested at optimal maturity.
