Critic Review

16/20 Tamlyn Currin, jancisrobinson.com "This genuinely smells like oranges – those gorgeous, aromatic, fragrant, knobbly, bitter Seville oranges. And it tastes like Seville oranges, sautéed in butter, salted goat's butter. Which sounds insane, but that is this wine... And it tastes like orange-tree leaves. Sorrel and Aperol and juniper and angelica. And then, as it warms, it reminds me more and more of clementines drenched in the Greek liqueur mastiha/mastika. Intriguing. If you love vermouth, you will love this quirky, skin-contact wine. A great aperitif/digestif wine!"

Soil and climate: The vines are planted on the highest vineyards of the steep north facing slopes in the beautiful foothills of the Cevennes mountains in an isolated position surrounded by nothing other than herbaceous shrub and woodland. The soil is a combination of schist and basalt boulders keeping a freshness and bright acidity in these deep rooting vines.

All the grapes are handpicked from the highest point in the vineyard (350M) and provide a yield of between 15 and 20 hl/ha and undergo a rigorous triage both at the vineyard and the winery. The small 15kg crates of fruit are taken straight to the winery where they are put in to tanks and left on their skins for 21 days under a nap of Carbon Dioxide at 8°C before being gently pressed. After 48 hours of cold settling the juice is racked-off the grape solids, then allowed to ferment at low temperatures (12 - 14 degrees centigrade). A carbon dioxide nap is also used throughout the entire fermentation process to avoid excess oxidation. Wild ferment, no use of enzymes or any other fining products.

A delicate white blossom, tangerine skin nose gives way to a rich, textured and multi-layered mouth feel, providing lush fruit with hints of lychee and grapefruit developing in to some green olive and almond on the finish.
