The 2025 vintage
The 2025 vintage was shaped by the rhythm of a demanding natural environment. A cool, wet winter gradually gave way to a spring marked by sustained, often stormy rainfall, falling unevenly depending on the layout and contours of each parcel.
This was followed by a hot summer, punctuated by two heatwaves – the first in early July, the second at the end of August – which accelerated ripening across the vineyards. Along the coast, harvest began as early as mid-August, nearly two weeks ahead of the dates recorded some thirty years ago.
Further inland, the later-ripening terroirs of Provence, particularly on the limestone plateaus, followed a different tempo, with more varied harvest dates largely dictated by the soil’s water reserves.
In the glass, the rosés and whites have retained a very fine freshness, essential to preserving the fruit and delicacy for which they are renowned, while the reds reveal power and concentration.
In the cellar, responsiveness and precise control of fermentation temperatures were the key challenges. Cellar masters and oenologists, working with fruit of outstanding quality, had to tame musts naturally rich in sugar and warmth in order to unlock the full potential of the grapes and preserve the balance of the wines.
Sustained by this remarkable quality of fruit, 2025 stands out as a generous, well-balanced vintage, confidently oriented towards the future.
Soil
Clay and limestone soils from the inland valleys, complemented by a few schist parcels that add complexity and vibrancy.

50% grenache – 35% cinsault – 15% syrah.
Vinification
Traditional vinification in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, following a gentle pneumatic pressing.
Ageing
A few months in stainless steel tanks on fine lees help to preserve the wine’s aromatic freshness as much as possible.
Tasting notes
Pale, delicate pink colour, both bright and subtle. The nose reveals small wild berries lifted by a fine touch of juniper. On the palate, the wine is lively and energetic, with hints of exotic citrus. The finish is vibrant and tangy, offering excellent refreshment
