Cuvée “Terroirs”

The Terroirs cuvée is made up of two plots of the youngest vines, planted in 2015 and 2018. The two plots are blended because of their young age and their still shallow rooting. The soils consist of sandy loams and small granite stones in gravel. The soil texture is very supple and draining.
