WINE MAKING PROCESS
Glou-Glou is produced using organic viticulture practices. The grapes, a blend of Syrah (65%), Mourvèdre (20%), and Grenache (15%), are fermented in stainless steel tanks. This technique is chosen to maintain the wine's fresh fruit aromas and flavors. Following fermentation, the wine undergoes aging solely in stainless steel, further preserving its vibrant, fruit-forward character and ensuring it is ready for immediate enjoyment. The producer, Les Vignobles Boissier, is committed to creating wines that are personal and representative of their southern French origin, with a focus on sustainability, including the use of PET bottles for packaging.
