LUBERON
Légende de Bonpas

A bee wall stands at the top of the monks’ vegetable garden. This majestic apiary is the oldest known in the Luberon.

Mainly within the Parc Regional du Luberon, which is equidistant from Avignon, Aix-en-Provence and Manosque. The average altitude of the vineyards is 300 metres above sea-level, and the grapes are harvested relatively late. Terroir: old alluvial deposits of round and flat stones, calcareous marl and limestone soil.

Grenache blanc, Rolle, Clairette et Bourboulenc.

Direct pressing for refinement and aromatic purity. Fermentation at low temperature with control of temperatures to preserve the fresh aromas.

Colour: Light and fresh.
Nose: Expressive of fresh summer fruits (apricot, peach) with exotic mango notes. It then opens up to flavours of citrus fruit and white flowers (acacia, hawthorn).
Finish: A fresh lively attack on notes of white flowers. This wine is very harmonious, revealing good balance with roundness, and flavour that persists on the palate.

Ideal serving temperature around Service: 14°C - Ideal as an aperitif or with oysters, grilled sea bass.
