Our ethics in the vineyards

Since the estate was established, the successive winemakers have always aimed to conserve their land.

Our belief is to respect what nature is willing to give us.

 

We work our land and our vines paying close attention to minimise the stress put on the vineyard's balance. This balance is a complex alchemy between earth, climate, vines and know-how.

 

In this search for an ideal balance, our yields are mostly low. This is essential in order to achieve a good expression of grape variety but also of minerality, which is drawn by the roots close to the source rock. We do not use weedkiller; we allow natural weeds to arise and control their growth through superficial plowing. This way, roots are forced to go deep to search for nutriments they no longer find on the upper layers of the soil.

Thanks to this meticulous labour, a wide diversity of plants and flowers grow in our vines, showing the vibrant healthiness of the land!

The estate obtained the organic label “Ecocert” in 2011.
