Presentation

Presentation
We are mainly a wine producer of AOC, but we have some plots, on each of our domains, in IGP Méditerrannée that we share with you with our "Quod Erat Faciendum" available in 3 colors.
"Quod Erat Faciendum" means: "What had to be done"... a little wink to simply share our know-how, in accessible and uninhibited wines.
Location
The plots are located between the Sainte Victoire and the Aurélien mountains, a contrasting setting with a characterful atmosphere. The brightness is breathtaking and has also inspired Cézanne when he came to the domaine.
Terroir
The vineyards are located at the foot of the Sainte Victoire moutain and are on clay and stony alluvials soils.
In the vineyard
All of our domaines are identically cultivated, AOC or IGP plots, in accordance with the specifications.
Winemaking
We realize a pneumatic pressure of the grapes after de-steming and a slight mechanic crushing. We carry on a fermentation in inox vats over three weeks and the temperature is kept at 18°C in order to develop the fruit aromas. The bottling is done in January, the following the harvest.
