Lorient Saint-Peray
| Vintage: | 2021 |

| Description: | Though Laure and Dimitri do work a total of 1.5 hectares of Syrah in Cornas and Saint-Joseph, their home in Saint-Peray is where they focus their energy, with 4 hectares of vines of Roussanne and Marsanne that they planted at 500m altitude, overlooking the Rhone Valley. Their plantings are roughly 70/30 to Roussanne and Marsanne, and this, the first white they produced, is reflective of that ratio. A beautifully dense white, with notes of lemon verbena and stone fruits on the nose, medium-weight with great balance and a mineral core that keeps the Roussanne's softer acidity in check. This is a white to serve at cellar temp, not too cold, as the delicate mouthfeel and subtle aromatics are best expressed this way. A fantastic example of the charm of Northern Rhone whites. Grapes are harvested by hand carefully and transferred |
