Viticulture

The Merlot is planted on an area of 6 hectares on predominantly clay soils. The harvest is mechanical.

Winemaking

Once pressed, the must will undergo alcoholic fermentation thanks to the action of indigenous yeasts. It will then be aged in tanks on its fine lees, which will give it richness and roundness.
