| Description: | H&B focused their selections for this wine on the cooler parts of the upper Provence vineyards where the oak and olive tree forests protect the vines planted in the clay-limestone soils and, in some ways, seem to nourish them. The higher altitudes also allow a full maturity without excessive sugars and produce lower alcohol wines. Blending is completed with grapes from the limestone foothills of Montagne Sainte Victoire, whose wines are almost marked by a vivacious and persistent minerality. Very fresh Cinsault planted a few meters from the Mediterranean Sea in La Londe des Maures are introduced to bring a subtle salty and anise expression. Vines are harvested at night between 3.00am and 9.00am in order to avoid oxidation and to preserve all of the fresh characteristics of the terroir and grape varieties. Grenache and Syrah are macerated together so that their personalities and qualities intermingle. The fat and weight of the Syrah balances beautifully with the natural freshness of Grenache. Look for w hite fruits and pêche de vigne but also delicate herbal notes of tarragon, bergamot and lime flower. Refreshing on the palate, lifted by a tang of fresh ginger. Pair with sautéed shrimp in garlic, all fresh seafoods, cheeses and charcuterie, olives, anchovies, salads and more. |
