He plants the vines, maintains them, harvests them manually, presses the grapes, vinifies them, ages them and bottles them until they are sold. Its wines have character, they come from 3 grape varieties: Syrah, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon. He makes plot selection to get the best out of these 3 grape varieties, according to the qualities and exposure of his plots. He blends to produce 5 cuvées of red wine and 1 cuvée of rosé. These wines are predominantly spicy, sometimes also fruity. They have a good length in the mouth and the most beautiful cuvées are complex and rare.
