L’Humeur Vagabonde
Amphora tank AOP Terrasses du Larzac

L’humeur vagabonde (vagabonde free style), AOP Terrasse du Larzac. Red – Organic wine

Aging 1 year in 1600 liter Tava amphora preserving the purity of the fruit and the minerality.

A free spirit guided by our inspiration, with a selection of the finest juices of the vintage.

Until 2017, this cuvée was a tribute to the rare old Carignans, but we had to pull them out in 2018 because of their age.

From 2021, it will be a blend of Syrah, Grenache and Carignan in a top-of-the-range TAVA terracotta jar. Heated to 1200 degrees, the wine tightens the pores.

The amphora shines through its neutrality to transcend the definition of a terroir.

AMPHORA, FOR AUTHENTIC TASTE AND PURITY OF FRUIT, GAINING VOLUME, SOFTENING TANINS, MINERALITY AND TENSION

The result is wines that are much more expressive than in vat and close to barrel, with superb aromatic sparkle and silkier tannins, all without any woody notes.
