It consists of a layer of marine molasses of the Miocene period covered by alpine alluvium.

The GRAND VENEUR cuvee will express year after year a great power and aromatic complexity.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\t \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\t\u003cspan style=\"color:#000000;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size:14px;\"\u003eWinemaking \u0026amp; ageing: Harvest is sorted by hand, destemmed and crushed.
