The vines were planted in 2014 in the limestone terroir of Saint Martin, notably with massale selection vines from Condrieu and Hermitage. The area of Saint Martin had previously been abandoned because of the active limestone levels in the soils, which are
the highest in the region and even higher than Gigondas, which made it very difficult to grow vines. The estate-produced compost was added to the soils, restoring the balance, returning them to life and making them suitable again for viticulture. This high limestone content in white wines imbues wines with sought-after characteristics such as energy, crystallinity, elegance, lightness and evanescence. The vineyards are certified organic.
