The
vineyard covers 22 hectares
and is made up of different
varieties of grapes
: Grenache,
Lladonner
(Grenache Pelut) Syrah,
Carignan,
Merlot,
Aubin and Alicante.
The Vines are on average
aged between 25 to 30
years old.
We enjoy a deep rich
soil composed of chalk
clay and sand.
The weather which is
known as "the Mediterranean
climate" provides
spring time rainfalls,
when the vine needs
them.
The length of sun in
the summer time provides
a most favorable ripening
of the grapes.
In the last few years
a programme of planting
in which we have privileged
the varieties Syrah
and Grenache have reinforced
the vineyards
Because of this we
prune the vines right
back.
The
soil is ploughed and
organic manure added
to give back to the
earth what it gave to
us.
We limit the yield
to less than 40 Hectolitres
per Hectare
