Terroir
Héritage is crafted from a blend of wines originating in the finest terroirs of the Côtes de Provence AOC with shallow schist and loam soils located on the foothills of the Maures mountains and on the hilltop slopes near Flayosc, on the doorstep of the Verdon. These ancient vineyards grow on hills amid olive trees and Holm Oaks. Other vineyards, located at a slightly lower altitude, on the clay-limestone slopes of the commune of Le Thoronet (home to the famous 12th century Cistercian abbey) and the variegated sandstone soil of the Cannet des Maures commune, receive an exceptional amount Provençal sunshine.
Winemaking
The grapes are harvested very early in the night to ensure that the wine has a lovely pale appearance. A short maceration on the skins is performed before pressing. The juices are settled at low temperature. Alcoholic fermentation is temperature-controlled and malolactic fermentation is prevented. Vinification is carried out in temperature-controlled stainless-steel vats in the traditional manner.
Certifications
Estandon has put in place a traceability process and has achieved a quality of production which has been IFS (International Food Standard) certified at the highest level since 2009.

Advice
Tasting
Delicacy and precision.
A bright, pale slightly rose-petal hue. The nose is fine and delectable, exuding white fruit aromas of peaches, pears and quince along with hints of melon and pomegranate. The palate is lovely - clean, round and fleshy on entry with a luscious restitution of the fruity aromas found on the nose. As the wine evolves, it shows a fine and silky texture, supported by a nice freshness that lends this wine lightness and depth. The whole is very well balanced, the wine possessing softness and delicacy as well as precision and a very pleasant acidity. Citrus fruit finish with a hint of Mediterranean spices.
