Ch\u00e2teau du Seuil vineyard spans 62 hectares, from the Puyricard plateau at an altitude of 315 m, up to the top of the Tr\u00e9varesse hillsides at 450 m. It enjoys a lot of sun; the climate is warm and dry with cool nights due to the altitude and the surrounding woods. The frequent Mistral wind reduces the risk of diseases. Today, the vineyard is entirely managed according to organic agriculture and was certified in 2019.<\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The wine cellar was opened for the 2016 grape picking. It is built on the Tr\u00e9varesse hillside, making it possible to have vatting facilities with two levels:<\/strong>
\"\"A mezzanine where the grapes are brought in.
<\/strong><\/p>

\"\" And the ground floor where the vats are installed: concrete vats are used for the red wine and stainless-steel vats for the ros\u00e9 and white wines.<\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The grapes are poured into the vats or presses using gravity, thus avoiding any handling of the fruit and any squashing of the skins, pulps and pips; a process that contributes to the quality of the wine. After vinification, the wines that will be used in the Ch\u00e2teau Grand Seuil range, except the ros\u00e9, are stored in the cask cellar or oak tun where they will age for up to 18 months.<\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
