Winter and spring were particularly mild and very dry, with January and May proving to be the driest months since the beginning of the 20th century, with record temperatures in May and June. These conditions made it possible to keep the vines in excellent health, as diseases were completely absent. The summer was then very sunny with high temperatures, which suggested wines with high alcohol content, but beneficial rains in mid-August allowed the grapes to ripen more slowly. On August 19, the harvest began under very good auspices and 11 days earlier compared to 2021. There were some rains in September, which, while not affecting the excellent quality of the grapes, made it necessary to sort in the plots. We treated our rosés very carefully to produce elegant, fruity and not alcoholic wines. The red wines, for their part, were gently processed and carefully extracted, announcing particularly balanced wines. Initial tastings suggest a promising 2022 vintage of great complexity and aromatic richness, as well as a very nice balance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cu\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaturation:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/u\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHand-picking, selection of grapes, pneumatic pressing, pre-clarification, fermentation partly in oak barrels and partly in steel tanks.\u003cbr\u003eFor 8 months.
