The vineyard is sustainably managed and HVE Level 3 certified, ensuring biodiversity preservation and environmentally conscious viticulture. With vines around 20 years old, predominantly rooted in limestone soils known locally as 'Caillottes', the result is a wine that elegantly balances authenticity with modern finesse.
