Rouge Clair 2023
Vin de France
Tasting notes
Palate:
This brilliantly fresh Rouge Clair should be tasted at around 10° when the « & Frais » sign/mention lights up on its label.
Sommelier's advice: This elegant wine pairs well with light dishes, spicy flavors like tandoori chicken, or French classics like pâté en croûte, thanks to its soft tannins.
Grape variety/varieties:
At once visionary in its elaboration and singular in its tasting, this Rouge clair is made from 80% Grenache noir and 20% Syrah carefully selected from the clay- limestone terraces of the Montagne Noir foothills.
Harvest:
The selected vines are well-balanced, not overly vigorous, and harvested in perfect health. Mechanical harvesting is carried out at night, and the grapes are picked slightly under-ripe to preserve the purity of fruitiness and freshness.
Vinification:
After de-stemming and vatting, the grapes are yeasted and cooled for 72 hours without intervention to limit color extraction and enhance aromas. Alcoholic fermentation then continues at 20°C, followed by light sulfiting after malolactic fermentation to preserve the fruit’s brilliance.
Ageing:
The Grenache and Syrah vats are blended a few weeks after vinification. Aged in stainless steel vats for 3 months.
Alcohol content:
12.5
