Alcohol 13.0%
Grape Varieties 100% Roussanne
Region Crozes-Hermitage
Soil Clay-limestone plateau with rounded pebbles
Fermentation Vessels Oak barrels
Pressing Method Gentle Pressing
Production Details Single-vineyard fruit from Pont-de-l’Isère at 90–120 m, from approximately 50-year-old organically farmed vines. After gentle pressing, fermentation takes place in oak barrels, approximately 10% new; maturation comprises 12 months in barrel and a further 12 months in bottle before sale. The sheet also reports acidity as 5.5 without a unit or analytical basis and sugar as less than 3 without an explicit unit, so neither observation is normalized as an exact canonical analytical value.
Tasting Notes Full-bodied yet taut, aromatic, long and precise, with concentrated, elegant texture
Food Pairing Fish, shellfish, and light meat
