The old vineyard of Val Joanis

Nestled in the picturesque Luberon, the Val Joanis vineyards benefit from the ideal conditions this region offers: soil rich in clay and limestone, and a south- and southeast-facing orientation that ensures optimal sun exposure. These factors contribute to the development of the Grenache grapes to their full potential, with each grape harboring a wealth of aromas and flavors waiting to be discovered. The unique vinification process, in which the grapes are cooled and the juice is quickly separated from the skins, preserves the intrinsic fruit aromas of the Grenache grape, while producing a white wine that captivates the senses.
