Rouge Gorge Jeunes Vignes
| Vintage: | 2023 |
|---|---|
| Description: | The vineyard work of Cyril Fhal is among the finest in France - his living soils and delicate vinifications produce brilliant natural wines that are in a class by themselves. The "Jeunes Vignes" is from 40 year-old Grenache vines in a parcel on gneiss subsoil called Mont-Redon. Hand-harvested into small baskets, foot pressing followed by three month vinification in wooden vats, then 8 months aging in stainless steel. Cyril explains his approach as "an infusion of grapes, allowing an expression of the delicacy of the variety." Aromas of rose petal, wild strawberry, blackberry and spice, with citrus and animal notes. The palate is supple, fresh and very earthy with firm acids framing lovely strawberry, plum and spice flavors. This is an unusually pretty and complex Grenache, to be enjoyed over the next 3 to 5 years, served lightly chilled. |
