Absolu de Schiste

Plot selection and manual har-vest allowing a vinification in Carbonic maceration (whole bunches). Gentle pressing, se-lection of the best juices and aging in French oak barrels for 12 months to add to its aroma-tic complexity and refine its tannin grain. The terroir of Roquebrun is located all the north of the appellation, on acid soils of schists, steep and friable, among the oldest in Europe. The four elements come alive in a same dynamic: the water of the rains guides the roots in the ground, the mother rock, and the fresh air of the nights comes after the burning sun. Schist is the ideal soil for this alchemical meeting. Hymn to Syrah, this wine is like its terroir: unique, deep, solar in its concentration, opulent in its structure, vertical from heaven to earth, on a long saline finish. Perfect with lamb or Cantal cheese.
