The vineyard site lies on a north-facing slope at Millarge, on calcareous weathered soils over yellow tuffeau. The 25- to 60-year-old vines are hand-picked; the grapes ferment with natural yeasts in a semi-carbonic maceration, half as whole bunches and half destemmed. Maturation takes place in concrete tanks for six months. In the glass, the wine is a relatively airy, dry red with blackberry, cassis and rosemary, fine acidity, well-integrated tannin and medium body. The partly lignified stems allow whole-bunch vinification without harsh tannins.
