DESCRIPTION
The Terrasses cuvees are, for each colour, blends of different soils
and varietals present throughout the estate. They reflect the
balance and generosity of the terroir to which the cool climate of
Mont Ventoux brings identity and coherence.
Profoundly anchored in the Ventoux terroir, Grenache and Syrah
express themselves here, with brilliance, indulgence and
suppleness.
SOIL
Located at an average a of the estate from gravelly soil covered
with pebbles and lime-stones to more or less rich in iron oxides
sands and clays. We work in our vineyard according to biodynamic
practices since 2015.
GRAPE VARIETIES
60 % Grenache, 40 % Syrah
WINEMAKING
The grapes are crushed and destemmed. We obtain optimal color
and aroma after a fifteen days maceration. Traditional winemaking is followed by a long rest. Then the wine is naturally
clarified through a series of decanting at select times, no fining.
No ageing, bottled at the estate.
WINE TASTING
Color: deep ruby color.
Nose: intense nose with spicy notes (especially black pepper) and
red berries.
Mouth: this very balanced wine offers very round tannins and fresh
berries aromas, with some floral and spicy flavors.
FOOD & WINE PAIRINGS
Very easy to match. With simple dishes such as pizzas, kebabs,
charcuterie, vegetable pies or salads to more ambitious cuisine like
terrines, poultry (guineafowl, turkey…), roasted or grilled meats.
Serve at about 17° C (62°F)
