Collection: Matin Calme

The Matin Calme estate is located in Millas in Roussillon, a few kilometers from Perpignan. An oenologist by training, Anthony first worked in the wine industry at large estates in the Bordeaux region. It was in 2006 that he decided to take over old vines planted between 400 and 500 meters above sea level, in Bélesta. Being at this altitude allows it to be around 4 to 5 degrees Celsius cooler than in the plain. In fact, every 100 meters there is an average of 1 degree less. Since the beginning of his adventure, Anthony's goal has been to work the vines in organic farming and to create free and living wines. The soils, very poor in microbial life, are located on a terroir of granite arenas and schists.

In the cellar, he seeks above all to produce gourmet wines, with fruit but without forgetting depth. The white grape varieties are pressed and matured separately in stainless steel vats then blended before being bottled. For the reds, he favors the whole harvest and semi-carbonic vinification so as not to have too much harshness in his wines. The macerations last approximately 3 weeks. Anthony does not use any inputs either for breeding or bottling. Today, the estate covers an area of ​​7 hectares but the vines have rather low yields. Anthony produces between 10,000 and 12,000 bottles depending on the vintage.
