"This wine from up in the back hills of the appellation is pithy and
yeasty-fresh, with a spicy lemon-orange note which almost reminds me of wheat
beer. There’s dancing acidity and a pungent finish." 89 points - Andrew
Jefford, Decanter
The 30-hectare vineyard spreads through the Mediterranean garrigue and is in
part situated on slopes of red earth covered with pebbles and gravel. These
release the sun's heat to aid the ripening of the grapes. The association of
garrigue, pine plantation soil types and the moisture-laden ocean breezes form a
special microclimate, bringing cooler air from September to October, which is
perfect for ripening late white varietals such as Picpoul.
The Domaine practices very conscientious viticulture and is a member of
Terravitis, a collection of winemaking estates that adhere to responsible,
environmentally friendly practices and promote a holistic and integrated
approach to bio-diversity within their estates. This serves as an alternative to
the organic certification.
