More about this wine
More about this wine
One of the first blends signed by Xavier Vignon. The berries come from “collection vines”, where many grapes varieties have been planted according to the appellation’s tradition. It is therefore difficult to give the exact proportion of each grape varieties. A wine that lives up to its name!
60% grenache, 15% mourvèdre, 10% syrah and other grapes (Vaccarèse, counoise).
Terroir
Selection of plots located on 5 different terroirs in the appellation: La Crau, rolled pebbles, sands, safres and urgonians.
Winemaking
Low-temperature vinification to preserve freshness.
Extraction of seed tannins has been limited to preserve the finesse of the skin tannins.
Ageing
Ageing for 18 months: 1/3 in concrete tank, 1/3 in truncated wooden tank and 1/3 in demi-muids.
Will mature until 2034+

Xavier Vignon
Xavier Vignon inherited from his parents’ two fundamental values: the love for a job well done and the capacity to transmit knowledge.
His in-depth knowledge of the Rhône Valley (34 harvests as an oenologist worldwide), his mentors, all the vintners he has been working with and his incredible memory have been forging his style and identity: Terroir driven, fruity and complex wines supported by freshness and minerality.
Xavier has been consulting for the very best wineries all his life and now dedicates his talent to his own creations.
