Description
A big natural fruit bomb. Semi-carbonic masceration on a blend of Grenache and Cinsault. Vinified seperately in concrete vats, bottled unfiltered and with no added sulphites. This a soft, ripe and juicy, medium bodied and very guilty pleasure drinking.
Aurélie and Vincent share a deep passion for natural wine and came to it from completely different careers. She was a postal worker, and he worked in environmental research. While neither came from a winemaking background, Vincent was inspired by his grandmother, who had once been a winegrower. Despite her honest warnings about the difficulties of the job, she ultimately understood and supported their decision to follow their new paths. They settled in 2014, starting out with 3.5 hectares of rented organic vines. Taking it step by step gave them time to learn both vineyard and cellar work, invest in essential equipment, and eventually buy land, all without taking on heavy debt. Today, they farm 12 hectares of old vines, growing up to 18 grape varieties, from classics like Carignan and Cinsault to some old or unusual types picked for their unique traits, like lower alcohol or better acidity. Vincent, with his scientific mindset, focuses on soil health and sustainable practices like using cover crops to enrich the earth naturally, planted fruit trees, without irrigation or chemicals. They’re committed to environmentally conscious viticulture that addresses climate challenges. In their winemaking, they aim for purity and lightness with minimal fuss. Bright, juicy, and full of fruit, their wines are a hit from Marseille to Japan, and now finally in the UK
