The grapes are harvested from two plots of old vines located on the slopes of the Cher on a clay-limestone terroir and selected for their superb aptitude for maturation. Monitoring of ripeness by regular berry tasting. Grapes are harvested with ripe fruit aromatic profiles. skin-contact maceration for 12 hours, then gentle pressing and light settling to preserve the aromatic potential. Traditional vinification with temperature control (17 to 19°C). Aged on fine lees with regular stirring (8 to 10 months) before bottling in July.

Golden colour. Exuberant nose combining spices, candied citrus fruits, exotic fruits (pineapple, mango), empyreumatic notes (toast) and a subtle minerality. Fleshy, voluminous and warm on the palate, well balanced between sweetness and freshness. Powerful, unctuous and salivating finish, with toasted notes.
