Using the best parcels in the area, the quality of Philippe's wines are truly outstanding and demonstrate just how good wines from this area of France can be. Bringing his experience and know how, and through rigorous selection in the vineyards and perfect control of the winemaking process, Philippe strives for perfection to ensure he delivers the best product possible.

A ruby red appearance, with lovely cassis and raspberry flavours and slightly spicy hints. A lot of fruit flavours on the palate with a hint of black pepper at the finish.
Delicious with roasted vegetable dishes.
Ripe grapes are essential to produce a good wine. Our winemakers look for the right moment for the harvest of each particular vineyard. A small part of the crop goes through hot skin contact maceration in order to support the fruity aromas. The majority of the grapes is destemmed and sent to traditional maceration and fermentation for about three weeks. This long process is ideal to extract the character of the variety and to get a good structure with supple tannins.
