Presentation
Maison Cascavel stands out for its artisanal approach to crafting exceptional wines. We closely collaborate with the winegrowers & passionately invest ourselves in every stage of the process. From meticulously identifying vineyard parcels to providing dedicated support to our partners, we are committed to offer handcrafted wines that embody the authenticity and personality of each appellation.
The vintage
2023 was full of contrats! Warm temperatures at the beginning of winter, then a return to normalcy until February; Spring was characterized by a persistent drought and strong wind, followed by regular rainfall until the end of June. Our winegrower partners have worked a lot in the vineyards to preserve the grapes. At the beginning of the harvest, berries were healthy and well-ripened, promising one of the finest vintages of the past decade.
Terroir
Lmestone, sand and clay covered with rolled pebbles at the foot of the "Mont Ventoux"
Winemaking
Cooling of the harvest from vine to cellar, in order to preserve the aromas and the color. Light pressing and cold fermentation. Vinification in stainless steel tanks and early bottling to keep fresh and crispy aromas of red fruits.
