TERROIR :The Domaine la Lyre is located in the heart of the Pouzilhac terroir, near the charming village of Uzes and the Pont du Gard in the South of France. The vineyard spreads over slopes, at an ideal altitude. While it benefits from a very sunny climate, it still remains fresh thanks to the neighboring Massif Central Mountains.The domaine is grown organically and certified by Ecocert.
VINIFICATION : The grapes are harvested only when they achieve perfect maturity, then they are carefully sorted and fully destemmed before the fermentation. Fermentation in concrete vats for 20 days. Ageing in concrete vats for around 6 months.
