The nose is fine and subtle, between aromas of violet and blackcurrant then fresh bread and pepper.
The palate is concentrated with tight, grainy tannins giving a chalky mineral tactile sensation. The finish is long between fruit and graphite.
Les-Salles-de-Castillon, in the North-East of the Castillon - Côtes de Bordeaux appellation area. The parcels are located on the plateau, in the upper and middle part of the hillside. They are mostly exposed to the South and some parcels have a slight North exposure.
The vineyard is in Organic Agriculture. The undersides of the rows are worked mechanically, and plant cover is installed 1 inter-row out of 2, the other inter-row being naturally grassed. They are maintained by mowing or mulching. The fertilisation is reasoned with the help of soil analysis and specific foliar analysis to balance the soil and the vines.
This organic cuvée embodies our commitment to conscious and sustainable viticulture. We have chosen authenticity and purity, opting for aging methods that respect and enhance the natural characteristics of the terroir. The aging in raw concrete tanks, large wooden vats, and amphorae is not just a technical choice; it's a philosophy aimed at expressing the best of the grape, in harmony with the environment.
Each plot is harvested at just ripeness, at the fullness of the intensity of the fruit. The grapes are partially destemmed before being vinified by promoting infusion, letting the grapes naturally express their potential and thus reveal their full personality while respecting the fruit and minerality of the terroir.
Contains sulphites. Does not contain egg or egg products. Does not contain milk or milk-based products.
The 14-month aging takes place in amphorae, in concrete vats and in demi-muids to accentuate the minerality and identity of the wines and preserve the expression of the fruit as much as possible.
The color is intense and brilliant, purple red with cherry reflections.
