VINEYARD
Since 1982, Maison Gassier has been crafting cuvées with an artisanal and creative approach, drawing inspiration from the exceptional terroir of Sainte-Victoire. The vineyard, which is run using organic farming methods, is cultivated with the utmost respect for the environment. Each plot is studied in detail to adapt the cultivation methods to the specific characteristics of each vine. We combine traditional craftsmanship with innovation, ensuring that everything we do is driven by an ongoing quest for balance and quality, from pruning to harvesting, through to winemaking. This precision work in the vineyards allows us to capture the authentic expression of our clay and limestone soils, along with the unique in influence of our climate, to produce expressive, lively wines in the Côtes de Provence and Côtes de Provence Sainte Victoire appellations.
VINIFICATION
The grapes are harvested at night, allowing the berries to be picked at a cool temperature and limiting the risk of oxidation. This is followed by direct, slow and gentle pressing, reducing contact between the skins and the juice to preserve the freshness and lightness of the fruit, while avoiding excessive colouring of the juice. The juice is then kept at a low temperature to preserve its fresh, delicate aromas. Fermentation takes place in concrete vats, a historic choice for Maison Gassier, to bring out the pure, authentic character of the grapes.
