Vineyard work
The estate benefits from a sunny Mediterranean climate tempered by sea breezes. This microclimate encourages biodiversity and helps naturally limit certain vine diseases.
Our vines grow on clay-limestone soils rich in micro-organisms that naturally nourish the plant. Insects and bats regulate populations of harmful insects, reducing the need for treatments. Thyme, rosemary, cypress, maritime pine and the other plants surrounding our parcels create a microclimate and even influence the aromas of our wines.
Did you know? In Bandol, biodiversity also shapes the character of our wines by influencing the vine's growing cycle and the concentration of aromas.
Faithful to our terroir, all our wines are organic and Biodyvin certified. We cultivate the vine with respect for natural balance, using practices that are increasingly virtuous. This agricultural model respects the soil, the vine and consumer health.
Natural preparations, including plant infusions, are applied according to the lunar calendar to strengthen the vine's immunity. The result is living soil, balanced vines and wines that fully express their terroir.

Vineyard work
Still guided by this search for balance, the estate continues its biodynamic practices with the preparation and application of plant-based infusions. Made from carefully selected plants, these natural preparations accompany the vine's development and strengthen its resistance to the spring climate.
Vineyard work
Following the work carried out this winter through sheep grazing, Guillaume and Nathan are currently uncovering the vine bases. This operation consists of gently removing the soil accumulated around the foot of each vine to aerate the trunk area, warm the soil and prepare for the season's mechanical work.
