2024 was a very fine vintage, despite yet another severe late frost episode in the region, which did not totally spare the estate. Alternating good rains, windy spells and temperatures that were not excessively high enabled us to obtain a very well-balanced harvest, with a real freshness in the wines obtained. They are easily digestible and fine, without excess.
This is the story of a Burgundian winemaker who came to Luberon. He drew on his roots to make unique wines in the south.
A family call and a timely proposal put the winemaker back on the road. Today, from north to south and south to north, each vintage is written in the plural.
