Harvest: 20\/09 (Grenache) and 15\/10 (Mourv\u00e8dre)
\nBottling: March
\nVinification without sulfites presents particular challenges requiring meticulous attention and care. Mourv\u00e8dre dominates as it is less susceptible to oxidation. Anne ensures all equipment is disinfected. The berries are cooled with dry ice to stop any early bacterial activity and then transferred to stainless steel tanks where the temperature is controlled between 22\u00b0C and 23\u00b0C. Punch-downs are performed every morning to optimize the extraction of aromas, color, and tannins.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
