Aromas of dark chocolate, olives and garrigue.

Wine-growing terroir

Poor granite soil, it encourages the roots of the vine to seek the wealth of minerals in the depths of the earth. Like all of the estate's vines, the Cornas “Les Murettes” vines are worked according to ecological principles that respect biodiversity and the beauty of the wine-growing landscapes.

Winemaking

Each year the vines are harvested manually. Once in the cellar, the wine undergoes plot vinification in truncated conical wooden vats. Then it is aged for 18 months in 400 and 500 liter barrels.
