Terroir
Natural factors
- A vineyard straddling the Gard and Lozère departments, at the foot of the Cévennes massif, the southernmost buttress of the Massif Central.
- An attenuated Mediterranean climate with Cévenol episodes: torrential rainfall concentrated over a few hours around the equinoxes.
- A northerly wind moderated by the mountain effect; significant diurnal temperature ranges during the ripening phase.
