Sainte-EpineSaint-Joseph

Vineyard

From our famous Saint-Jean-de-Muzols terroir called Sainte Epine composed by altered granit at the top of the hill (380 m alt.), this vines go deep in the rock in order to get minerals needed. The most beautiful grapes are selected to product this high quality wine and the full south-exposure insure a full ripeness of the fruit. As our whole vineyard this vines are worked with eco-friendly methods in order to respect biodiversity and our beautiful landscapes.

Wine-Making
