Gamay

The grapes come from a parcel planted in 1979 in Villette, where around 50 to 60 per cent of the original vines are still preserved. The vintage was picked on 28 September 2018 at around 102 °Oe, with a yield of 0.8 kg/m². According to the estate, the dry, warm year produced a concentrated, distinctive Cuvée with pronounced mineral tension. Total sulphite content is 38 mg/l; the wine was bottled in 75-cl bottles with natural corks. The official wine category specifies indigenous yeasts as desired, light filtration and sulphites at the end of vinification.
