FEATURES

TERROIR AND SOILS
The name of this vintage comes from the green clays. Indeed, our soils are a little deep, with very draining calcareous marls, and systematically a thick vein of green clay, called "Illite" in pedology.
During long periods of drought, especially during the summer, green clay is the only soil where moisture persists. The fineness and purity of these clays guarantee a supply of water to our grapes.
