Grape Varieties:
This Côtes du Rhône is a blend of Grenache, Clairette Blanche, Viognier and Bourboulenc grapes from clay limestone soils from the North of the Vaucluse and Gard. With a Southern French climate renowned for its contrasts; it endures the summer heat and Mistral wind.
Winemaking:
The harvest is realised early in the morning to preserve primary aromas of the grapes which are then pressed. Optimized settling to boost aromatic potential (between 3 and 6°C) before the fermentation at very low temperature (12 - 14°C). The ageing in vats lasts for 6 months before bottling.
Tasting notes:
Pale robe with green hints. Fine and elegant with complex notes of white flowers (jasmine) and apricot. Well-balanced in mouth with fruit aromas at the finish.
Service & food pairing suggestions:
Perfect as an aperitif, with a salmon tartar, pork with curry & garlic, or again with a pear & almond tart. Enjoy it cool between 10°C to 12°C, now or cellar for up to 3 years.
