Terroir
Dêmos comes from a selection of our finest terroirs on the granitic slopes of Gervans and Crozes-Hermitage. The vines, aged 35 to 70 years, benefit from south-western exposure and naturally produce concentrated grapes, giving the wine depth, complexity and length.
Winemaking
Vinified with minimal oenological inputs, with no enzymes and no fining agents. Aged in barrel to reveal the full complexity of the terroir and bring depth, finesse and ageing potential. Minimal sulphiting is carried out only at bottling.

Tasting Notes
Delicate aromas of black fruit, violet and sweet spices, lifted by discreet oak. Silky and elegant on the palate, supported by lovely freshness and fine tannins that carry the tasting experience through a long finish.

Winemaker's Notes
The Dêmos cuvée conveys a place through a vintage. 2023 was warm and relatively dry, resulting in a full, generous and harmonious wine that combines power, freshness and elegance. A cuvée that faithfully reflects the identity of our finest terroirs.
