The vintage

2023 was a year full of contrasts: warm temperatures at the end of December and beginning of January raised concerns about early budding; a return to normalcy continued until February with relatively cool weather; a persistent drought accompanied by a strong Mistral wind, followed by regular rainfall until the end of June. Thanks to constant vigilance in the vineyards, the berries were healthy and well-ripened when harvest started, promising one of the finest vintages of the past decade.

Terroir

Located north-east of the town of Beaumes de Venise at 350m high, the terroir of Bel Air is made of marl, clay and rocks (100-140M years old), with a typical white color.

Winemaking

Ageing

12 months

Grape variety

  • Grenache noir – 60%
