Soil ploughed with our draft horses since 2010. The well being of the soil is a priority.
The horse is in connection with 3 elements of terroir : mineral (chalk) vegetal (vine and flora), and animal (fauna, human).
According to the historian M-A Wagner, the horse is a holy, not predatory animal, which contributes in the social and spiritual balance.Work using natural gravity instead of pump
Fermentation per lieux-dits (plots) in wooden vats and barrels
Long ageing on lees
Great care of wines by naturopathy
Use of hardly no sulfites (>25 Total SO2)
