Rainfall remained at high levels during the spring, accompanied with above-average temperatures. These conditions significantly promoted downy mildew, and biodynamics particularly helped to mitigate losses. Dry weather set in with the arrival of the summer. It was the hottest summer season on record since 2003. However, the year did not suffer from the bottlenecks observed in the past, as the spring rain ensured sufficient water resources for the soil. Veraison was early. The grapes ripened in perfect conditions: dry weather with high levels of temperature variation between night and day, which is very conducive to good polyphenol development. This weather produced grapes with good tannic potential and a southern style, which we had to take care not to enhance during the winemaking process. Retaining freshness was the key to success here.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator type=&#8221;small&#8221; position=&#8221;left&#8221; up=&#8221;7&#8243; down=&#8221;20&#8243;][vc_row_inner row_type=&#8221;row&#8221; type=&#8221;full_width&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; css_animation=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]<strong>Harvest area*<\/strong>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]16,10 hectares[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner row_type=&#8221;row&#8221; type=&#8221;full_width&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; css_animation=&#8221;&#8221; padding_bottom=&#8221;30&#8243;][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]<strong>Harvest terroir*<\/strong>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]clay-limestone soil on the slopes and clay-silt at the foot of the slopes[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner row_type=&#8221;row&#8221; type=&#8221;full_width&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; css_animation=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]<strong>Grapes harvested*<\/strong>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]100% Merlot[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner row_type=&#8221;row&#8221; type=&#8221;full_width&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; css_animation=&#8221;&#8221; padding_bottom=&#8221;30&#8243;][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]<strong>Harvest dates<\/strong>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]17 September to 1 October[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner row_type=&#8221;row&#8221; type=&#8221;full_width&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; css_animation=&#8221;&#8221; padding_bottom=&#8221;30&#8243;][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]<strong>Winemaking<\/strong>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]<a href=\"#\">Learn more about winemaking<\/a>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner row_type=&#8221;row&#8221; type=&#8221;full_width&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; css_animation=&#8221;&#8221; padding_bottom=&#8221;30&#8243;][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]<strong>Cultivation methods<\/strong>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]Vin biologique, Agriculture France,<br \/>\nFR- BIO-01<\/p>\n<p>Vin biodynamique, contr\u00f4l\u00e9 par ECOCERT France SAS[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner row_type=&#8221;row&#8221; type=&#8221;full_width&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; css_animation=&#8221;&#8221; padding_bottom=&#8221;30&#8243;][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]<strong>Maturation<\/strong>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]75% barrels and 25% in vats[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner row_type=&#8221;row&#8221; type=&#8221;full_width&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; css_animation=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]<strong>Yield<\/strong>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]30 hectolitres \/ ha[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner row_type=&#8221;row&#8221; type=&#8221;full_width&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; css_animation=&#8221;&#8221; padding_bottom=&#8221;30&#8243;][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]<strong>Production<\/strong>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]20.413 bottles[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_column_text]<span style=\"font-size: 11px;\"><em>* For this Vintage.<\/em><\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_separator type=&#8221;small&#8221; position=&#8221;left&#8221; up=&#8221;20&#8243; down=&#8221;7&#8243;][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text el_class=&#8221;justif&#8221;]<span style=\"color: #deb900;\"><strong>Tasting notes<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>A beautifully deep colour.
