Tasting Note
Yellow-green in colour, the Grand Ardèche 2007 has a subtle nose of vanilla. On the palate there are soft notes of spice and vanilla. This is a round and powerful wine. Tasted April 2009.
Vinification
Traditional oak barrel ageing for 8-10 months with 100% malolactic fermentation
Description
Consistency of climate and abundant sunshine in the Ardèche perfectly ripen these bunches of grapes , whilst the drying Mistral wind eliminates any risk of rot. The Grand Ardèche is treated as if it were grown in one of the Grand Cru vineyards of the Côte-d’Or. Fully-ripened grapes are selected and pressed lightly before being aged in oak barrels made at the Latour cooperage in Beaune.
