Grape-Picking

Manual, with a selection in the vineyard on the stainless grape bin. The Harvest started on the 24th of September. Thanks to a generous and ideal weither, we picked-up beautiful grapes with very good maturities ! Indeed, with a good sunshine and some rainy episodes just when needed, all the conditions were combined to produce a beautiful Harvest. So, the Vieilles Vignes 2015 already shows very pretty colours, generous flavours and fine and silky tanin structure. All the elements are present to guarantee a very promising great vintage 2015 !
