Vintage Notes
The 2022 vintage in Luberon included a mix of contrasting climatic conditions. Winter and spring were particularly mild and very dry. Record high temperatures were recorded in May, followed by a sunny and hot summer. The grapes were managed with care, harvested and sorted at ideal windows to ensure wines with compelling aromatics, freshness and great balance.
