A label which will formally recognize a form of production which has been in fact used on the <em>Domaine<\/em> since its beginning.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>From the start of the <em>Domaine<\/em> we have called on the expertise of Claude and Lydia Bourguignon to fully understand the composition of our soil.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1502107629224{padding-top: 2.5% !important;padding-right: 10% !important;padding-bottom: 2.5% !important;padding-left: 10% !important;}&#8221;][vc_column_text]Our grapes are entirely hand-harvested and our semi-buried tanks allow us to move the grapes using only gravity. This allow to not push our grapes too hardly, from harvesting to ageing.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In our cellars, soft extractions allow for the fruit\u2019s nature to be preserved as well as its strength in flavor. As a follow-up to this approach, aging operations are only carried out in large containers. The barrel\u2019s wood emphasizes the fruit\u2019s expression without ever dominating it. The specific identity of our <em>terroir<\/em> then meets the fruitiness of grenache, backed by Syrah and Mourv\u00e8dre. When bottling, our wine is very slightly filtered, so as to not alter its finesse and subtlety.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=&#8221;&#8221; row_type=&#8221;row&#8221; use_row_as_full_screen_section=&#8221;no&#8221; type=&#8221;grid&#8221; angled_section=&#8221;no&#8221; text_align=&#8221;center&#8221; background_image_as_pattern=&#8221;without_pattern&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1502891837874{padding-top: 4% !important;padding-bottom: 4% !important;}&#8221;][vc_column]<a  itemprop=\"url\" href=\"http:\/\/georges-lombriere.com\/en\/interview-of-benoit-lombriere\/\" target=\"_self\" data-hover-background-color=#bb9c6e data-hover-border-color=#bb9c6e data-hover-color=#ffffff class=\"qbutton  small center default\" style=\"color: #bb9c6e; border-color: #bb9c6e; \">Interview of Benoit Lombri\u00e8re<\/a>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_type=&#8221;parallax&#8221; parallax_content_width=&#8221;full_width&#8221; text_align=&#8221;center&#8221; background_image=&#8221;773&#8243; full_screen_section_height=&#8221;no&#8221; section_height=&#8221;500&#8243;][vc_column][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row row_type=&#8221;parallax&#8221; parallax_content_width=&#8221;full_width&#8221; text_align=&#8221;center&#8221; background_image=&#8221;1246&#8243; full_screen_section_height=&#8221;no&#8221; section_height=&#8221;500&#8243;][vc_column][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=&#8221;&#8221; row_type=&#8221;row&#8221; use_row_as_full_screen_section=&#8221;no&#8221; type=&#8221;grid&#8221; angled_section=&#8221;no&#8221; text_align=&#8221;center&#8221; background_image_as_pattern=&#8221;without_pattern&#8221;][vc_column css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1502107613112{padding-top: 6.5% !important;padding-right: 10% !important;padding-left: 10% !important;}&#8221;][vc_column_text] A certain idea of a Ch\u00e2teauneuf-du-Pape [\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=&#8221;&#8221; row_type=&#8221;row&#8221; use_row_as_full_screen_section=&#8221;no&#8221; type=&#8221;grid&#8221; angled_section=&#8221;no&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; background_image_as_pattern=&#8221;without_pattern&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1502879024795{padding-top: 3% !important;}&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1502107621797{padding-top: 2.5% !important;padding-right: 10% !important;padding-bottom: 2.5%&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"full_width.php","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-1156","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/georges-lombriere.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1156","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/georges-lombriere.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/georges-lombriere.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/georges-lombriere.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/georges-lombriere.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1156"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/georges-lombriere.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1156\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/georges-lombriere.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1156"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
