CHATEAU DE PIBARNON RED BANDOL 2020
Grape variety 90% MOURVEDRE - 10% GRENACHE
The vines dominate the valley, facing the sea, hanging from restanques to restanques, up to 300 m in altitude, on these slopes forming a vast circus sheltered from the mistral. The high altitude of the vineyard is worth cool nights and slow ripening of the grapes. The Château de Pibarnon vineyard is planted on very old Triassic soil, characterized by a very high level of limestone. This limestone promotes the appearance of bouquets in wines, and allows the extraction of very fine and elegant tannins.
COTE ROTIE STEPHANE OGIER 2020
Rooted in Ampuis for many generations, this family has always worked in the Côte-Rôtie vineyard. By taking over from his father Michel in 1998, he chose to do specific work on his different terroirs in order to reveal the uniqueness of these places full of history.
Côte-Blonde, But de Mont, Lancement, Côte-Rôzier, Champon, Besset ... this vineyard is rich in a mosaic of plots located in the heart of the Côte-Rôtie whose soil diversity and the northernmost climate of the Valley du Rhône gives the wines an incredible finesse. As close as possible to the vineyard, it strives to reveal the typical elegance of this appellation. The range he offers is therefore faithful to his roots and represents, for him, the culmination of a long history and fascinating daily work.

Gigondas les Grames 2022 Domaine des Espiers 75cl
It is in 1989 that the area of Espiers was born in Vacqueyras, when Philippe Cartoux decided to walk in the footsteps of his grandparents who owned a vineyard in the family since 1879.
The vineyard now covers 9,5 hectares including 3 to Gigondas , 4 en Cotes du Rhone et 2,5 en Côtes-du-Rhône-Villages Sablet . The grape variety is very largely dominated by the 3 main Rhone grape varieties, namely Grenache, Syrah and Mourvèdre. The vines are in reasoned fight and do not receive any chemical treatment. In general, the gestures are all part of a logic of respect for the terroir and the environment, with in particular yields of less than 35 hl/ha.
The harvest is manual for traditional vinification and aging taking place in oak barrels. Philippe Cartoux likes to develop robust, gourmet but also refined wines.
The grape variety is not classic since it is 65% Grenache noir and 35% Syrah. The nature of the soil is clay-limestone, and the yield for the traditional vintage is faithful to the decree of the appellation, i.e. 35 hl. The vinification is traditional, without destemming, cold at the beginning, then raised to temperature (35°) and stripped in order to extract maximum fruit. The harvest is carried out manually and the cultivation of the soil is mechanical (without chemical weedkillers) the wines are generally unfiltered. Aging is carried out for 6 months in 225 liter barrels.
