Fruit from the lieu-dit Tempéré in Chiroubles cru. The average vine age here is 50 years in shallow pink granite soils.  Vinification involves whole-cluster carbonic maceration in cement vats before moving to foudres for 12 months. 

“This immediately engages the nose. Curiosity piques. What is it? The perfume. The scene here is intriguing. Pretty things: the combination of forest fruit, fresh rose petals, garden herbs but then also something darker like drying blood, wet rocks, dead flowers and amaro bitterness. The wine is quite light or medium-bodied max, sleek, with linear acidity, savoury profile, pinch of spice and fine but textural tannins. Lovely stuff, perhaps just missing a bit more flavour drive in the back..”
