Detailed information

Vintage

Harvest 2013 in the Southern Rhône Valley was a very specific one due to a serious shortfall in Grenache grapes caused by a cold and wet Spring. Fortunately, the Syrah and Mourvèdre grapes were beautiful. The yields were then very low which always gives a nice quality and wines that will keep well.

Grape varieties

Grenache noir, Syrah

Winemaking

The grapes are hand-picked and fully destemmed before fermentation. Each grape variety is fermented individually and fermentation/maceration lasts for approximately 4 weeks. After about 12 months of maturing, the different varieties, which were aged partly in oak and partly in vat, are combined to form the final blend before bottling.
