A blend of Carignan (35%), Syrah (30%), Grenache Noir and Mourvèdre, grown on schist and limestone soils. The vines are between 30 and 120 years old and are farmed organically, with a yield of 18 hl/ha. The Gaubys are also adepts of polyculture, which they use to recreate biodiversity around their vines.
