Tasting Notes: A bright ruby red in colour, which announces a great freshness. Delicate aromas of strawberries, mashed raspberries with floras notes which gives a light touch. The palate has a clear and vivid attack, with a well-balanced acidity which makes the tasting refreshing. The delicate and fruity finale leaves a nice sensation.
At once visionary in its elaboration and singular in its tasting, this Rouge clair is made from 80% Grenache noir and 20% Syrah carefully selected from the clay- limestone terraces. The selected vines are well-balanced, not overly vigorous, and harvested in perfect health. Mechanical harvesting is carried out at night, and the grapes are picked slightly under-ripe to preserve the purity of fruitiness and freshness. After de-stemming and vatting, the grapes are yeasted and cooled for 72 hours without intervention to limit color extraction and enhance aromas. Alcoholic fermentation then continues at 20°C, followed by light sulfiting after malolactic fermentation to preserve the fruit’s brilliance. The Grenache and Syrah vats are blended a few weeks after vinification. Aged in stainless steel vats for 3 months.
To preserve the flavour and freshness, store in a dark place at cool temperature 10 to 12 degrees.
Food Match : Perfect as an aperitif, with lighter dishes. Spicy flavours like Tandoori chicken or the soft tannins match perfectly with pate an croute. Chill for approximately 20 minutes to bring out the fresh, herbaceaous flavours.
