Presentation
Presentation
This wine epitomizes charisma and purity, offering a dark, intense Côtes du Rhône that seamlessly balances finesse and harmony. Crafted from the diverse and complementary terroirs along the Rhône River, it showcases a standout Grenache brimming with flavor and personality. Though not tied to a single estate, it stands out as a consistent gem, delivering a refreshing vibrancy that's a rare treasure in the sun-soaked Southern Rhône Valley.
Terroir
This wine unlocks the magic of terroir, orchestrating a symphony of contrasts. It seamlessly unites the rugged granite slopes of the northern mountains (right bank of the Rhône) with the rolling, stony landscapes of the south (left bank). Sourced from the finest vineyards, it stands as a tribute to authenticity and diversity, skillfully weaving the unique traits of each region into a harmonious tapestry of exquisite flavors.
Winemaking
Experience the essence of time-honored winemaking through traditional methods: fermentation occurs in robust concrete tanks, carefully maintained at low temperatures below 20°C (68°F) to preserve the wine's purity and vibrancy. Following fermentation, the wine undergoes an extended maceration period of 2 to 4 weeks, allowing it to develop remarkable depth and complexity.
