LOCATION: Its proximity to the Châteauneuf du Pape vineyards and the similarity of its soil (a mixture of sand
and pebbles), as well as the old vines from which it hails,
gives this Côtes du Rhône Villages great concentration
and loads of character.
VINEYARDS AND TERROIR: Harvesting is carried out by
hand and the grapes are transported in 15kg perforated
crates. The grapes are sorted berry by berry before
going into vat.
GRAPE VARIETIES: Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre.
PRODUCTION:
By grape variety and by parcel. After a fermentation period of around 25 days with pumping over, rack-andreturn, and punching down operations, the wines are
drawn off and then aged in vats until bottling.
TASTING NOTES:
Strong ruby red hue. Aromatic and rich with black fruit on
the nose (blackberry and plum)
Good concentration, broad and solid with lovely length
on the palate.
SERVING AND FOOD PAIRINGS:
16-17°C, serve directly, ideally with grills or cow’s
cheeses
