A Côtes-du-Rhône made by adding a small percentage of reserve wines to the final blend! A final touch that softens the tannic structure and adds tertiary aromas. 

90-92/100 - PARKER 

"Rich, velvety and long, the 2017 Cotes du Rhone 100% looks like another winning example of this cuvée. It's full-bodied, bursting with grape, boysenberry and blueberry fruit, yet it remains fresh and mouthwatering on the finish" 

90-93/100 - JEB DUNNUCK

"More graphite, new saddle leather, blackberries, and cassis emerge from the 2017 Côtes du Rhône Cuvée 100%. It’s concentrated, medium to full-bodied, and beautifully textured. This cuvée is a Grenache- dominated blend (there are small amounts of Syrah and Mourvèdre) raised all in concrete."

 

Almost 100% of the terroirs of the Southern Rhône Valley, 156 parcels located at high altitude on hillsides, selected for their exceptional polyphenolic concentration.

Vinification

Harvest dates are determined by daily berry tasting and systematic analysis of polyphenols in order to obtain maximum ripeness of the tannins, without them being herbaceous.

Vinification is carried out separately for each "couple" of grape varieties showing the same level of maturity.

The Syrahs and Mourvèdres are cold-macerated.

Élevage

Part of the wine (40%) is matured in French oak barrels from the Allier region and the rest in concrete tanks.
