Vineyard | It is a small terroir with clayey limestone soil, drained because of gravel in depth. Famous as one of the best climats from the village, "Mitans produces fleshy and racy wines, worth ageing". Our supply comes from two plots and one of them is more than hundred-year-old. |
Vinification | At their arrival in our cellar, the grapes are carefully sorted in order to keep only the healthy grapes at an optimal ripeness Alcoholic fermentation in open vats: 16 days 17 months (whose 3 months in stainless steel tank) 100 % oak barrels (whose 25% of new oak) |
Vintage | After a cold and dry start to the year, temperatures rose quickly at the end of March, triggering a rapid resumption of the growing cycle. A few morning frosts impacted part of the vineyard at the end of April but without major damage. The flowering period takes place in a few days at the beginning of June in superb weather. The summer is hot and sunny but delivers some welcome storm rain to help the plant enter the veraison stage. The harvest takes place at the beginning of September with ideal weather and impeccable health quality of the grapes. |
Food Pairing | Ideal with red meat cooked in sauce, game animals, eggs called "oeufs en meurette" and most cheeses. |
