Vintage Notes
The 2023 Rhône Valley wine-growing season was multi-faceted, producing a vintage formed by erratic weather conditions. The year saw hydric shortfalls and excessive heatwaves, accompanied by bouts of Mediterranean rainfall, and again, water stress. But this was also a year when the terroirs blossomed in the face of adversity. This, combined with diligent vineyard management, enabled grapes to reach excellent ripeness.

Vineyard Notes
Planted mainly in stony-marl soils and on clay-limestone slopes, these soils are porous with a steady and regular water supply. They warm up quickly in the spring and help the grapes to reach perfect maturity.

Harvest Notes
Harvest is carried out by machine at night to preserve the aromatic precursors. 2022 was a sunny vintage. We had to “keep calm and carry on” throughout this season of drought and heat, constantly adapting. Responding fast to curb the vegetation when the welcome rains arrived and remaining patient to allow the grapes to reach full maturity. All this made 2022 an astonishing vintage that, as it turned out, was more luminous than sunny.
