Each variety was vinified separately. The grapes were pneumatically pressed, and the juice underwent static settling. 100% of the must underwent fermentation with natural yeast in barrels under temperature-controlled conditions to preserve the freshness and integrity of the aromas. Maturation in barrels lasted for seven to eight months, with regular bâtonnage for two months, which imparted texture and complexity. The wine
was matured until the spring equinox. A light fining took place before bottling.

Winery

Situated on the coast, overlooking the Mediterranean Sea, Château l’Hospitalet’s vineyard benefits from exceptional climatic conditions. The heat of the Mediterranean sun is tempered by the refreshing sea breezes, resulting in a gradual maturation, which allows for a great aromatic expression and smoother tannins. Two types of soils contribute to the complexity and the elegance of this wine: the marly and chalky Gargasien soil at the foot of the cliff is rich in fossils. It provides excellent water retention properties, nourishing the vines throughout the warm summer despite the lack of summer rains. The red Mediterranean Barremien soil is formed on blueish-grey compact limestone amidst the scrub, encouraging the vines to produce rich and concentrated fruit. The fruit is manually harvested at optimal ripeness based on daily tastings.
