He works primarily with regional varieties such as Grenache, Cinsault, and Clairette, producing both red and rosé wines through low-intervention cellar practices. The domaine is especially associated with lightly extracted, aromatic expressions of Tavel that differ from the appellation's more conventional, fuller-bodied rosé style.
