Understand the word "ECLAT" in the old French sense as bang, splendour, shine, rise, burst. It is the story of a brief moment during the grape harvest for this rosé, when night gives way to day, the night slowly disappears and the first rays of sun touch the garrigue, the landscape takes on the color of the bright northern lights.

The grape harvest begins at night with a harvester under artificial light, because at this time it is still relatively cold. As the morning light increases, the harvesting process is completed and the grapes are immediately taken to the winery for winemaking. This avoids oxidation and preserves all the fruity aromas of the grapes. They are partially de-stemmed, cold pressed, macerated, pre-clarified and fermented at a controlled, low temperature. The aging of this biodynamic wine in stainless steel tanks takes 5 to 6 months.
