The grapes come from several vineyard sites on the Hermitage hill, including Rocoules, L’Ermite, Péléat and Maison Blanche, with varying granite, clay and stony soils. The wine is slowly pressed and fermented in barriques, where it is matured for 15 to 24 months; after blending, it undergoes a six-month resting period. Compared with warmer years, the 2021 vintage shows greater tension, acidity and saline minerality, with aromas of apple, quince, citrus, white flowers, hazelnut and smoky herbs.
