Our wine

“Wine is like a child. I bring my child up – respecting him/her for who he/she is – and the result is that he/she remains determined and sincere in the exercise of life.”

 

 

HERMITAGE RED

On the legendary Hermitage hillside, our vines are located in the Beaume and Péléat districts. These massal selection are over 50 years old and deep rooted in loess soil. South-facing on the hillside, the plots benefit from moderate but optimal sunshine in this warm climate. All the parameters of this terroir give us remarkable substance and finesse.

 

 

CROZES HERMITAGE WHITE

I love white Burgundy, and I seek the same signature from my Crozes-Hermitage whites. The vine duo Marsanne (70%) and Roussanne (30%) allow me, while respecting the balance of the vintage, to play on the complementarities of the two grape varieties, extracting a wine with a structural balance, between freshness and the elegance of fruit.

 

 

 

On the Pautus terraces, the former Rhône river bed has deposited a layer of river pebbles, marking the identity of the terroir and emblematic of the Crozes-Hermitage appellation. My Syrah have been growing here happily for over 50 years. For Le Rouvre, I select plots where the grapes produce deep, perfectly velvety tannins, for a wine with a marked identity and optimal ageing qualities.

 

 

CROZES HERMITAGE RED

This blend is built on the estate's parcels in the villages of La Roche de Glun, Mercurol and Pont de l'Isère. From this palette of Syrah terroirs, the wine designed is a marker of the vintage in the spirit of the appellation: fruit, brightness, elegance...what else !
