The 2024 harvest was wild. Between pruning and picking the grapes, we only observed
how the vines reacted to the different stresses of the season. Astonishingly, that
was precisely what the grapes had hoped for. Low quantity, high quality.

Bages is among the windiest regions in Europe. Here, the Mourvèdre vines stretch gracefully
between the Étang and the first ascent of the Corbières.

Taking sunrise pictures became a kind of daily routine since we moved here.

Harvesting the Carignan.
Next year, a green carpet will unfurl between the rows.

Grenache Blanc, framed by withered grasses. The harvest marks the close of the dry
season.

In early September 2024, these vines were harvested for the first time not by machine
but by twelve friends, bending their backs under the sun.

Here, in the heart of the hameau Pesquise, we will establish our new cellar. It requires
extensive restoration but will be ready for pressing the vines by May 2025.

In the meantime, we craft authentic garage wines.

We need more breaks with cold drinks compared to a harvest day in the Alps.

Compared to harvesting in the Swiss Alps, the advantage here is that the evenings
remain warm, perfect for tasting some wines with the picking team.

Walking back from the cellar is an event in itself—provided you're not too tired to
look up.
