| Tasting Note |
| The result is a full-bodied wine that is smooth with notes reminiscent of exotic fruits and
vanilla spice imparted by the oak.
The rich lemon gold hue invites you to sniff the ripe open nose of fresh tropical and citrus
fruit aromas with integrated smoky vanilla oak flavours. In the mouth, a warm creamy
texture coats the mouth with layers of ripe fruit balanced by freshness and a long smooth
finish. |
|
| 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.
