Winemaking
Terroirs : Located in the village of Bué, we own 1.39 hectares of this single 32 hectares plot. Grand Chemarin is a vineyard characterised by limestone soil, a Eatern exposure and old vines of around 40 years.
The grapes are harvested manually and sorted upon receipt at the winery, where we work by gravity in order to be as respectful as possible of the natural cycle of vinification. We lightly press the grapes and only keep the first part of the juice – the purest, most precise and full of flavour. The must are vinified using natural yeast in temperature- controlled stainless steel vats. They are aged for 12 months on fine lees, filtered and then bottled.
