Varietal specificities
Souvignier Gris is a resistant grape variety. It is a natural cross between a European vine (Vitis Vinifera) with recognized oenological qualities and a wild American vine (Vitis Rupestris) that is resistant to powdery mildew and downy mildew. Up to 15 times fewer treatments than in organic farming! This results in considerable savings in energy, water, and labor, as well as a significantly reduced carbon footprint.
Vinification & ageing
Vivant is made using traditional methods, a process that has been practiced in our region (Limoux) for centuries. After gently pressing the destemmed grapes, fermentation begins in stainless steel vats using indigenous yeasts, without the addition of any additives. When the perfect balance is achieved, the wine is bottled with enough residual sugar to allow for natural secondary fermentation in the bottle. Undegorged, undosed and with no added sulfites, it retains its lees in suspension, giving it a slightly cloudy texture and a unique aromatic richness. Its pale yellow color with a slight haze is evidence of its lively and authentic production.
TASTING NOTES
A truly thirst-quenching wine, Vivant is a naturally sparkling wine that is ultra-refreshing and perfect for any occasion. Its light bubbles are reminiscent of craft beer and highlight its citrus and white peach aromas. Like all living wines, it continues to evolve in the bottle and may develop a slight deposit.

La Faq
A resistant grape variety is a natural cross resulting from manual pollination between a European vine (Vitis Vinifera) with recognized oenological aptitudes and a wild American vine (Vitis Rupestris) resistant to the diseases powdery mildew and downy mildew. A kind of super-organic!
No. All our wines are vinified with indigenous yeasts, naturally present in the grapes. This is easy to do with our resistant grape varieties, as they are rarely treated and their natural yeasts are thus preserved.
So we don’t need to add any inputs. The natural acidity of our resistant grape varieties, combined with meticulous cellar management, means we can avoid adding sulfites to our wines.
Organic wine complies with precise viticultural specifications, but still allows certain inputs during vinification.
Natural wine, on the other hand, goes one step further: it is organic and no additives are used during vinification.
Yes, 100%. We use:
The lightest bottle on the market (370 g), made less than 80 km from the vineyard.
French cork, from forests in Roussillon.
Natural wax, instead of aluminum capsules.
Labels made from recycled fibers (sugar cane, hemp, flax).
Even our cardboard boxes are recycled!
