Description of the Terroir : The «Clos des Aubépines» is a very particular soil which is brown with a granitic substrate (granitic composition - mica, quartz and feldspaths).
It is a composition of eruptive rocks that crack and crumble to shape rough sand (called granitic arena) with light water retention. The granite degradation level is quite advanced, which allows the release of mineral elements.
This terroir offers lively, expressive and acidulous' wines. They are very delicate and often go along with a sensation of salinity on finish.
Harvest and Vinification: Hand pickings with grape sorting and selection. Slow and progressive pressing Flow of the must by gravity. Natural cold clearing. Introduction into steel tanks to make the alcoholic indigenous fermentation up to 12 months regulated between 16°C and 18°C to finish its growing on thin sediments up to 14 months.
