The planting density is low at around 3600 vines per hectare. The vineyards are planted with 50 years old vines of Grenache (60%), Carignan (30%), Syrah and Mourvèdre. The vines are gobelet trained to help the vines combat the dry conditions. They are planted on sunny steep south-facing slopes and are surrounded by ‘la garrigue’ scrubland. Yields are very low of concentrated grapes of around 25 hl/ha. Our very old white grape vines are located around the Mas and in the town of St Paul de Fenouillet. These old Grenache Gris, Grenache Blanc and Macabeu are planted in soil made up of limestone and shale shards; our soil tends to restrict the vines’ growth, resulting in lower low yields with a strong mineral expression. The climate is Mediterranean with hot dry summers and mild winters. Rainfall levels are extremely low and mostly fall in the winter months leaving the vines to suffer in the arid soils from hydric stress during the hot summers. The vineyards are constantly buffeted by the wind, either the cold, dry “Tramontane” wind coming from the North West, or the hot and humid “Marin” wind coming from the Mediterranean Sea. The «terroir» is exceptional, composed of stones from the slow erosion of the Corbières hills. Thanks to the varied schists, shale, sands and large limestone rocks, the grapes are able to reach perfect levels of ripeness.
