La Cuvée des Princes d’Oranges comes from vines ranging in age from ten to thirty-five years old. The vines are grown in clay soil with some limestone and with gravelly patches on the terraced slopes. Grapes are hand-harvested and undergo an eight to ten-day maceration without being crushed. Daily délestage, as with many of Boissan’s cuvées, takes place. After fermentation, the wine is aged for six months in concrete vats and then six to eight additional months in oak. Yields of about 50 hL/ha.
