The vineyard is located in the south east of France, in the Valvignères and Vogüé areas. It grows 130ha of Chardonnay. Here, the terroir is known as “gravettes”: 100% clay-limestone soil with few loose aggregation of rock fragments and the grapes are picked when ripe to the maximum.

Traditional – However, we reduce the malolactic fermentation on 50% of the volume to preserve freshness and lightness. We then age in oak around 60% of the cuvée for 6 weeks to bring out more richness. Luc Tallaron has taken great care to vinify at low temperatures, retaining maximum aromas and fine fruit flavors.
