Of Roman origin, the vineyard of the Costières de Nîmes is one of the oldest in Europe, it is at the junction of Occitanie and Provence. Consisting of stony alluvial inputs brought by the Ice Age and Villafranchian pebbles (sandstone which is formed mostly of large pebbles rolled by the Rhone) resulting from alternating periods of warming and glaciation of the Quaternary era.

-HARVEST :
Part of our harvest is done at night, it also has an ecological interest. It is best to harvest at night; the air temperature is cooler and the grapes being picked will return to the cellar at a lower temperature. We try to have an optimal temperature to minimize and optimize the work that will be done in the cellar. Harvesting at night will also preserve the aromas of the vine. Not only does this preserve them, but it will also encourage the winemaking work in the cellar since we will return a healthy and fairly fresh harvest with an average temperature between 18 and 20 degrees Celsius The nocturnal harvest allows the production of a finer and more fruity wine.
