Grape varieties :

• Syrah (40%) and Grenache (60%)
• Average age of vines: 20 – 35 years old

Situation and geology :

• 4½ hectares are located on the plateau “Hautes Garrigues” of Sarrians.

Vinification :

• The fermentation is regulated by flags and is maintained at a temperature between 28 and 30°C. This process lasts 2 to 3 weeks.
• Michel optimizes the qualitative potential of his wine by daily pumping over and releases or punching of the cap are done every 2 days.

Ageing:

• Ageing continues in big oak tanks during 6 – 8 months depending on the vintage.

Tasting :

• This Vacqueyras will seduce you with its fruity and quite spicy nose, and its elegant, charming, complex mouth. Although this fine wine can be drunk young, it will continue to mature for up to ten years and will go perfectly with cheese and meat.
