Équilibre

Young vines, 30-40 years old, on Loire soil (sand + sandy-clay).

Single Guyot pruning, severe disbudding, manual leaf thinning and green harvesting depending on the vintage. Plots grassed every other row. Green manuring to promote soil life and combat erosion.

Harvesting takes place after careful monitoring of grape ripeness. The bunches are sorted directly on the vine, then brought to the winery.

- Gravity-filling of the press with whole grapes
- Cold pre-fermentation maceration (6-7°C) for 3-4 days
- Aged 6-9 months in stainless steel tanks
- Bottled the summer after the harvest
- Bottle ageing from 14 to 18 months.

Ruby color with garnet highlights. Nose of fresh red fruit. Round and full on the palate with accents of red fruit supports the slightly tannic structure.

Mixed salads, cold meats, poultry, grilled meats, pasta dishes with sauce and exotic dishes.
