“Poudrière”, Luberon Rosé

From Sylvain Morey, scion of our Chassagne producer, Jean-Marc, comes this rose from his domaine in Luberon. 40% Grenache, 30% Cinsault, 20% Syrah and 10% Carignan. The Syrah and three-quarters of the Grenache is direct-press, with the remainder macerated on skins for several hours. Fermented then left on lees in concrete tanks for 6 months before bottling. A wine of surprising structure and length with an elegant balance of red fruit and subtle spice.
