From vines up to 80 years old. Described as virile with persistence of roundness.
Specifications
| Vinification | The harvest is entirely destemmed, to avoid excess tannins. In the cellar, Peirazeau has a minimal-intervention approach; he uses only indigenous yeasts and no added substances. The grapes are macerated in stainless steel tanks for 2-4 weeks with gentle manual pumping-over and punching-down for soft extraction. |
| Élevage | In oak barrels (around 30% new oak on average) for about 18 months, no racking. Light filtration before bottling. |
| Vineyard Soil | Limestone, with a subsoil that contains a layer of thick marl. |
| Tasting Notes | The soil gives vigor to this wine which can be described as virile, but also a persistence of roundness. |
