Cotes du Rhone 2017 "Les Deux Albion" - St Cosme
-
Co-fermented Syrah, Grenache, Carignan, Mourvèdre and Clairette.
Whole clusters. Vatting for six weeks.Clay hillsides (ancient alluvium), limestone marl, pebbles. Aged in wooden vats (conical) and concrete tanks.
Les Deux Albions is our most traditional wine. My grandfather, who I was not fortunate enough to know because he passed away in 1949, used to make his Gigondas in the same way, using organic viticulture, small yields, whole cluster fermentation, co-fermentation of several varieties in concrete tanks, native yeast, pumping over and ageing in both oak and concrete vats. In fact, it would be hard to do things any simpler. But, let’s not forget that crafting beautiful things simply is the hardest, just like with gourmet cuisine. As some of you already know, this wine ages extremely well.
Overripe strawberry, gingerbread, honey and bacon. Bottled without filtering.
