Vines are trained in the Goblet, except the Syrah which is Guyot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eHarvesting is done by hand and entails an intense selection and sorting. Clusters are destemmed, fermented with native yeast fermentation with 3-4 weeks of maceration in concrete vats with pump overs and delestage. Elevage is completed in 14 months in large concrete tanks. The wine is vegan, delicately filtered with clay after the wine has naturally settled with time. \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eMinimal sulfur is added after racking and before bottling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eABOUT THIS PRODUCER\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFrançoise and her children, Nicolas and Coline, represent the 5th and 6th generation of winemakers at the prestigious Clos du Calvaire family estate in Châteauneuf-du-Pape (previously Vignobles Mayard). With the 2016 vintage Françoise expanded the family’s efforts with a small negociant project for the Côtes du Rhône, and in 2019, added Châteauneuf-du-Pape blanc and rouge. The family puts a strong emphasis on biodiversity and organic farming practices and sources for the F\/R selections from farmers with the same respect. President of Femmes Vignes Rhône, an organization that shines a light on the women working in the Rhône valley wine industry, Françoise sources through these partners whenever possible.
