Product notes
The vineyard is laying on hills surrounding the village of Rasteau and facing the mountain of ‘Dentelles de Montmirail’. The vines are relatively sheltered from the Mistral, the famous Provençal wind, and are planted on clay-limestone soils. Thanks to its quality and the dynamism of the winegrowers, Rasteau rose to the rank of Cru of the Rhône valley in 2010.
Production notes
Once the grapes have been fully destemmed, they are crushed. Each grape variety is vinified individually to develop its own characteristics. The vatting time lasts 1 to 2 weeks according to grape variety. The wines are then racked off and undergo malolactic fermentation. The different grape varieties are then blended and aged 6 months in vats before bottling.
Tasting notes
Deep ruby, brilliant colour. Great aromas of ripe fruits along with peppery spices. Round and silky palate with lingering fruitiness.
