A very floral nose, as you’d clearly expect given the name of the cuvée... But what complexity! A nose that evolves from chamomile and elderberry to apricot, raisins and orange peel. Palate: balanced, with well-blended tannins, ultra smooth! 9% ABV, just go for it!

A 100% Muscat cuvée, from old vines pruned with the traditional gobelet method, and planted on a terroir of red schist soils, rich in iron, surrounded by garrigue, on the lieu-dit "Couleuvre". The estate is certified organic and uses biodynamic farming techniques. Harvesting is done by hand. Vinification: a two-week maceration of whole clusters in wooden casks, with indigenous yeasts. 6 months of aging in those same casks of 2000 liters, on the lees. Unfined, unfiltered, and zero sulphur added!
