ABOUT THIS WINE
Vines planted from 1911 to 1944; 70 years old average age. The fruit comes from small parcels on schists, including the lieu-dit Roc Blanc, named because of its large outcropping of quartz.
The parcels are vinified together. Destemmed and layers of whole-clusters. Ambient yeast fermentation with pieds de cuve in closed concrete tanks for 7 days, then pressed and racked back to tank to finish fermentation. No temperature control. No punching down or pump overs. Aged in tank. No fining, light filtration.
