The sky is overcast today and the temperature is flirting with +30\u00b0 C when it is already 6:30 pm. Since the end of July, the rains have been waiting and the heat wave has been in place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here is a look back to understand the current vintage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unlike some French regions, the Ard\u00e8che experienced rains in late autumn and winter: November, December and early January were very humid.&nbsp;Then at the end of January and February, the weather shifted to dry until March, and then was wet again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Winter was normally cold with about a month of negative temperatures allowing the vines to rest. It snowed &nbsp;&#8211; not only to the delight&nbsp;of the vines but also of the happiness of the&nbsp;Tissot children! &nbsp;For the vineyard, the snow allows water to be completely assimilated by the plant, there is no runoff: the snow melts slowly and water is available on site. &nbsp;Even if it is not large quantities of water that are brought in, this is a great benefit for the vines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>April and May were cold, and&nbsp;freezing temperatures&nbsp;in the first days of April &#8211; burning the leaves in the bud, we call it black bud. At Mas Heritage, a few Grenache vines&nbsp;planted at the entrance to the estate and better protected from the wind were affected, but in a small proportion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The duo: rain and cool temperatures around flowering (early June) had us fearing&nbsp;the arrival of black rot, but the heat that followed quickly prevented disease.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the end of June, the first heat wave episode was handled fairly well by the vines, which had accumulated available water. &nbsp;But since the end of July, the heat wave has been a heavy burden for the vines. The grapes are small, and there will be no closure of the bunch!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fran\u00e7ois waits to reveal his&nbsp;harvest dates, it is still too early to decide.<br>Maturity checks have started. This year it takes 410 berries to make the controls against 200 in general to reach 500 g of fruit.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>2019 will be a year of small harvests with no major surprises.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/gallery.mailchimp.com\/8cc45cf08bf7beaf6f607b870\/images\/20d2fdbe-2a3f-4dcf-b23f-c575f6075809.jpg\" alt=\"\"\/><figcaption>Photo of vines last May 2<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Work in the Vines<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2013, Fran\u00e7ois carried out his first planting campaign at Mas Heritage, with 1.80 ha of vines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unfortunately, out of the 1.80 ha, a small area of vines did not grow well and remained stunted, despite the regular autumn sowings made by Fran\u00e7ois to enrich and work the soil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Looking back a little bit, the years 2013 and 2014 were two vintages very affected by the C\u00e9vennes episodes. These are stormy rains that hit the C\u00e9vennes and flow into the Ard\u00e8che, in heavy rains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When the plants have been in place for 10 years or more, the vines are not very affected, but on the plantations this may have given more complicated results. The soils of a plantation have been worked upstream and are quickly compacted in case of heavy rains!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/gallery.mailchimp.com\/8cc45cf08bf7beaf6f607b870\/_compresseds\/e7040184-5678-4185-a066-99a00548317e.jpg\" alt=\"\"\/><figcaption>Photo of the torn plot with the soil compacted on the surface<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Fran\u00e7ois therefore decided to dig out these vines of Pinot Noir, Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay and Sauvignon for the whites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The soils are currently at rest. At the end of the harvest, green manure seedlings will be applied to nourish the soil and not leave it bare. This will continue to preserve the developed microbial life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With the exception of Cabernet Sauvignon, the vines will be replanted identically in spring 2021 because the past harvests were of very good quality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Especially the Pinot Noir! It&#8217;s a good thing because it&#8217;s a grape variety that Fran\u00e7ois likes very much.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/gallery.mailchimp.com\/8cc45cf08bf7beaf6f607b870\/images\/e25a356d-d92f-426f-82e2-5fc3d201c49c.jpg\" alt=\"\"\/><figcaption>Plot of vines uprooted and which will be put at rest with a sown fallow land<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Vintage 2019 : External Threats<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fran\u00e7ois does not complain about any threats. &nbsp;His vineyard seems to be sheltered from wild boars, which often wreak havoc in the vineyards. &nbsp;However, its vines are placed near the woods and the Ard\u00e8che is known to host these mammals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fran\u00e7ois explains to me that his neighbours are hunters &#8211; he adds, having fun, &#8220;they probably do their job!&#8221; &nbsp;The hunting season was opened a week earlier this year and the result is that our winegrower is not bothered by these pests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The year that started wet, then dry and very hot is a year without disease pressure. Fran\u00e7ois has treated very little, he calculates at less than 1 kg of copper applied per hectare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/gallery.mailchimp.com\/8cc45cf08bf7beaf6f607b870\/images\/a5f3ffb9-bbed-4a69-9778-e9f24e64dec5.jpg\" alt=\"\"\/><figcaption>Grenache Vines<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>New Boutique &#8211; in Joyeuse<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/gallery.mailchimp.com\/8cc45cf08bf7beaf6f607b870\/images\/444f74df-f9d5-47d8-b070-994463f7baf7.jpg\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Before the summer, the estate opened a shop in the centre of Joyeuse.

The proof with this move allowed him to create his cellar directly on the estate: a luxury!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fran\u00e7ois has reorganized the space, the old bottle storage cellar is now in Joyeuse, next to the new shop. And the storage room became the winemaking cellar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The enormous advantage for this upcoming vintage is therefore the possibility of vinifying on site!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To equip the cellar, a batch of 4 tanks has just been delivered. Fran\u00e7ois had already installed his barrels: 3 demi-muids for the reds and 11 barrels for the whites. Finally, an investment in a refrigeration unit completes the equipment for vinification under ideal conditions. According to Fran\u00e7ois, this is the key to producing wines of great finesse! &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Everything is ready to welcome the grapes!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignleft is-resized\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/gallery.mailchimp.com\/8cc45cf08bf7beaf6f607b870\/images\/ddb7e918-7c3e-4fef-aa5a-6fe3476d4ef4.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"273\" height=\"205\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/gallery.mailchimp.com\/8cc45cf08bf7beaf6f607b870\/images\/1adfe1ca-5b8c-4a4f-bee0-88f3a32de5dc.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"275\" height=\"206\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignleft is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/gallery.mailchimp.com\/8cc45cf08bf7beaf6f607b870\/images\/b6225236-96f0-44f3-a6ff-51b577fcc5f4.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"274\" height=\"365\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/gallery.mailchimp.com\/8cc45cf08bf7beaf6f607b870\/images\/1c7fefd1-9194-4fb4-bd0c-0d247b899548.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"270\" height=\"360\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Photo of the cellar, barrels and vinification tanks<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/gallery.mailchimp.com\/8cc45cf08bf7beaf6f607b870\/images\/633433cc-2eb8-4fcd-af7f-ad09a1e3a87b.jpg\" alt=\"\"\/><figcaption>Milk tank to cool the water to be able to vinify at low temperature.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Wines Available from Les 7 Pierres<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The Wines of Domaine Fran\u00e7ois Tissot &#8211; Mas Heritage&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignleft is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/gallery.mailchimp.com\/8cc45cf08bf7beaf6f607b870\/images\/fe02e241-0e6a-4a55-9ba0-1dba86843023.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"238\" height=\"317\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Mas Heritage Blanc &#8211; Cuv\u00e9e Marie<\/strong><br>The white 2017 is a blend of Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Viognier and Riesling vinified in vats, 30% of which are new barrels.
