Description:

Established in 1920, Yves Cuilleron applies just one principle to vinification: "Keep things as simple as possible”. He is also deeply attached to local traditions. His grapes are invariably hand picked and meticulously sorted; for the alcoholic fermentation, natural yeasts only and no other oenological products, just temperature control. For the whites: pressing, 24 hours’ must settling, and then alcoholic and malolactic fermentation is conducted directly in the barriques. For the reds: partial destemming, and alcoholic fermentation in open vats for three weeks, with traditional cap-punching and pumping-over.
