Soils: Marls, Schists and Limestone. White grape varieties: Macabeu, Grenache Gris and Blanc. Red grape varieties: Carignan, Grenache Noir, Mourvèdre.
Never have I ever second guessed myself, it is without a doubt and unthinkable for me to work the soil and vines other than with the upmost love and respect. We cannot say we respect the land while using products which have skulls marked on their bottles.
After several unsuccessful attempts, we are currently working with a biodynamic approach. Under the guidance of Jacques Mell (a biodynamics advisor) since 2010, we carefully apply biodynamic practices. He allowed us to understand and practice, as thoroughly as possible, this type of agriculture which is full of common sense and sensitivity. Today, I can better understand my vines, my soil and my terroirs. Working as closely as possible to the ground and the vine stocks allows me to make even more delicate and accurate wines.
