L'équipement traditionnel
 

 

The Sumeire Châteaux are specialized in the production of red wines for aging.

According to provençal tradition, red wines age in oak tanks called " foudres ", from six to twelve months.
A very light oxygenation occurs then, smoothing the wine and softening young tannins.

Moreover, those aging-cellars being half buried offer a constant temperature and hygrometry, hence, an excellent preservation and slow maturation.

After bottling, all of our red wines will rest for a period of 6 months before being marketed, in order to complete the maturing process.
