Agreement. Farm chicken simmered like a rooster in wine, squab prepared fashionable Woodcock, net of Angus to the young Morels.

This wine comes from several plots of Grenache located around the field at a place called "The Bedines" on a soil composed of sand and safres (agglomerated sands), which confers to the wine fineness and flexibility. These plots were planted between 1954 and 1972 and represent 95%of the plantings.

Mourvèdre, Cinsault and Vaccarese make up the remaining 5%. The manual harvest began on September 19 after a sort to the vine. The returns on these old vines do not exceed 28 hl/ha. The vinification is done in tank concrete with a maceration of 28 days. Punching and daily pumping helped to extract the components of the grapes.

Farming in wrath (9 and years of age) took over 17 months. The bottling took place March 9, 20. (16 000 bottles and 300 magnums produced).
