Jacques Castany and Pascal Dieunidou are two wine fanatics, farming inherited vines part-time in the village of Vingrau (Roussillon). With limited acreage, average yields of just 1.05 tons/acre, and consistently stellar press, the wines are naturally in short supply, though there are plans to slowly increase production to meet demand.
55% Syrah, 30% Grenache, 15% Carignan.
Viticulture: Sustainably grown, with all viticultural work done by hand and organic manure used for fertilizer. Fruit was sorted during harvest (also by hand) and transported to the cellar in refrigerated trucks, where it was sorted a second time before vinification. Yields of 1 tons/acre!
