Parcels on the northern slope of the lesser Luberon range down to the village of Oppède-le-Vieux. 35-year-old vines with a limited yield of 30HL per hectare. Sandy and well-drained soils with some alluvium pebbles.
Harvested by hand, total de-stemming, and traditional vinification.
Aged during 36 months in oak barrels of 3 to 5 wines.
Lovely deep dark red robe. Expressive and spicy nose, with intense ripe fruit and liquorice aromas. Complex and well-balanced levels of acidity and tannins on the palate, with a red fruit and gingerbread finish.
