The main advantage of this type of grafting is to benefit from a functional root system, allowing for earlier and more vigorous grape production.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7251438 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"7251438\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>In 2024, 1.63 hectares of Cinsault from mass selection were added to the grape varieties. Since March 2023 and the new appellation decree, Cinsault becomes in Gigondas a complementary grape variety like Syrah and Mourv\u00e8dre. This approach is a desire of Gigondas winemakers because Cinsault offers the advantage of being drought-resistant in a context of climate change. It should therefore thrive on this high-altitude (475 m) plot on north-facing slopes, with a dry and arid limestone soil. However, it will still be necessary to wait for its 4th year to harvest its fruits and see its potential expressed.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c5f0ecb elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"c5f0ecb\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Concerned about the quality and originality of our vineyard, we have made mass selections for our future plantations. Instead of buying young vine plants, we chose our scions by cutting shoots from the beautiful vines of the estate. This technique allows us to preserve the genetic diversity of the vineyard and thus the quality of our production. It is particularly interesting because our estate has very old vines well adapted to our terroir, which constitute a viticultural plant heritage to be
