Description
The parcels of vines are situated at the bottom of the valleys, away from the seashore, offering the most warmth. Thanks to this location, the grapes of Banyuls achieve excellent maturity. The structure of the schist allows the vines roots to seek the resources it requires deep underground. As a result, the wines express freshness and finesse. The wine is fermented in vats. When approximately 100g/L of residual sugar remains during fermentation, the process is stopped with pure alcohol (99% ABV). It is then placed in 30hl oak casks. The maturing period lasts 14 months in an oxygen-free environment. As a result, it conserves its vinous characteristics and aromatic notes of fresh fruit.
Tasting note
Grenache is a variety with various berry aromas (cherry, black currant), stone fruit, licorice, and caramel. This is a genuine explosion of berry flavors (cherry, black currant). Boasting good concentration, it offers a rich and round palate with coated tannins.
