Tasting Notes
small black fruits, ink and black pepper.
very present tannins, liquorice. Depending on the vintage, the wine can be kept for 30 to 60 years, or even 50 to 75 years.
The grapes are picked when ripe.
This wine comes from a place called Les Greffieux at the foot of the Hermitage hill. This terroir is made up of a terrace of glacial alluvium composed of rolled pebbles and clay.
The harvest is entirely de-stemmed, then vinified in cement vats. A long maceration allows a gentle extraction of tannins. Only the run-off juice is used.
The wine is aged 100% in barrels, one third new and the rest in barrels of one or two wines. Maturation lasts 14 to 18 months. Natural clarification. Unfined.
