Grenache

Roussillon

From the Corbières region of south west France. Florian and Gaëlle Richter spent their formative years in Burgundy but when they wanted to start making their own wine, the high cost of land forced them to look elsewhere.  If you want to start from scratch from making small lots of artisinal wine this is a region that can make it possible. Despite utilising wine making techniques from Burgundy, they don't want to lose the essence of Corbières itself. So along with a structure of freshness there is also the concentration that the region brings. This, along with the unique qualities of the local grapes, Grenache, Carignan and Macebeo, give a real taste of this lovely area. 

Grape varieties: 70 % Carignan 30 % Grenache Noir Winemaking: Destemmed then crushed by foot in tank Cold-soaked for few days Fermentation with indigenous yeasts in concrete tanks Punch downs and Pump overs. Long maceration. 12 months on fine lees in 228 L barrels from Chassin, Claude Gillet and Damy (25% new oak)
