Grown in limestone and clay soils and average age of the vines is 40 years. 2 weeks of skin contact (destemmed grapes), light extraction using few punch downs, racking and pressing, completion of malolactic fermentation, minimal addition of sulfites (27ppm), fermented and aged in stainless steel tanks.
Francois Ducrot operates in Lansargues (Languedoc), collaborating with nearby grape growers who are equally committed to eco-friendly farming. He procures organic grapes from the eastern Languedoc region and vinifies them in his Lansargues cellar.
François Ducrot has cultivated relationships over the past ten years, giving him access to unique terroirs and high-quality grapes. This area in Languedoc is overflowing with sediment and rich soil, allowing for a perfect balance of acidity and gentle ripening. Despite the dry climate and extreme temperatures, François still manages to produce crisp wines that embody the lively energy of the south and the sophistication of the north.
