 A Tavel of Grenache and Cinsault... a gastronomic "Rosé"


 Wine obtained from Grenache and Cinsault trained in goblets and coming from a plot located in the terroir of the Vestides (limestone scree on clay). The grapes were picked by hand in small crates then macerated for a few days in whole bunches before pressing. Fermentation without the addition of yeasts. Wine without fining or filtration and to which a little sulfur was added for bottling and conservation (total sulfite: 0.03g/L).

 PRESS


 Decanter 93/100 (2023)


 An interesting style, with engaging herbal notes, olive and bay leaf. Has integral tannins, but lovely freshness, balance and feels authentic, not overworked. Very fresh and drinkable, delicious with or without food. In conversion to organic.


 Jancis Robinson 16/20 (2023)


 Bright aromas and a lovely floral note. A ripe palate, with a creamy note and hint of spice. A rounded and red-fruit-led finish.


 Drink Rhone **** (2023)


 80% Grenache, 20% Cinsault (1955) from 1 hectare on chipped limestone above clay soils on Malavent, part of Les Vestides, bought in April 2023 from a Co-operateur's family, hand harvested, several days' maceration, then whole bunch pressed, concrete vat vinification, wild yeasts, raised concrete vat 5-6 months, unfined, unfiltered, low added SO2, organic wine


 slightly cloudy red dress; the bouquet has a blood-iron shaft of clarity, with a confirmed level of raspberry and redcurrant. The palate serves a neat offering of red berry fruit, is nicely reserved, well directed, continues with a pitter patter of finesse into an attractively juiced finale, a floral note there. It's an airborne, but attractive style of Tavel, gives good, clear drinking, has some natural fat at its center. 13.5°. 2026-27 Oct 2024 Previously March 2024 ***(*) red-tinted dress; the bouquet has a sweet noted air, cooked strawberries, a note of winsome crabapple red fruit. The palate offers an appealing texture on debut, its oil feels good, comes with supple gras, has a little red wine structure, and the length is pretty sure. This has character, is table wine, up for white meats, for example. 13.5°. 2026-27 March 2024
