Languedoc - Roussillon - Côtes-du-Roussillon Villages Lesquerde
Ratings
Tasting notes
Appearance:
the colour is intense, deep and steady.
Nose:
first nose remarkably fresh, it shows maturity with aromas of black fruits and warm spices. We find the soils of origin are revealed with floral notes (violet) which are lightly smoky. We can find the same aromatic notes on the Northern Côtes-du-Rhône soils, which are the birthplace of the Syrah.
Palate:
it shows maturity with aromas of black fruits and warm spices. We find the soils of origin are revealed with floral notes (violet) which are lightly smoky. We can find the same aromatic notes on the Northern Côtes du-Rhône soils, which are the birthplace of the Syrah.
Sommelier's advice: the attack is both supple and powerful. Tannins are at the same time powerful and tight. The finale is fresh without any heaviness.
Grape variety/varieties:
Osso bucco
Harvest:
The vineyard of Lesquerde is constituted of hill top plains and slopes which are made of granitic soil. Its 350m altitude provides it a unique terroir.
Soil:
Mainly Syrah, and then Grenache and Carignan varieties.
Vinification:
Each plot is hand-harvesting between 15th September and 15th October. This is a late terroir because of the altitude and nature of soils.
Ageing:
The grapes are destemmed and maceration lasts around 4 weeks. Extractions are carried out by pumping-over. Temperatures don’t exceed 32°C.
Alcohol content:
14.5
