Edouard Guerin, Technical Director at Clos de l’Oratoire des Papes, is committed to cultivating the vines with the upmost respect for nature and the environment. The vines used to produce the wines of Clos de l’Oratoire des Papes are carefully preserved thanks to gentle and most importantly natural cultivation practices.
Since 2008 the vines at Clos de l’Oratoire des Papes have been cultivated using organic methods. 80 to 90% of the quality of the finished wine is determined by the vineyards. In order for the vine to remain in well nourished, in good health and well exposed, this precious terroir is cultivated using the most respectful cultivation practices possible. Although man cannot influence the deeper structure of the soil, what he can do is intervene in almost all other parameters in order to ensure the highest quality possible in the finished wines.
