TERROIR : Estate Fer de Sang, Negret de Banhard, and a touch of Cab Franc, all co planted near Nicola’s house. The vines are about 30 years old and look over the Selves river on their steep cliff. Mauvais temps or bad times is a century old name for this place where it never rains, so you never get a day off! Vinified at the estate just like the other reds.
HARVEST : hand picked
VINIFICATION :
One week maceration with whole bunches, gentle pressing, blending of free-run and press juices, and elevage in old barrique. The wine is bottled in June 2020. Not fined or filtered, either. 1mg so2 at bottling.
